Intro

You're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

I hear it all the time, you're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

Verse 1

The shadow that passes, the light that hugs me

Your eyes looking at me

The street that sings its everyday song

The world moving

And I know

That you're scared and it's not a good time for you

And for what's been happening to us

Chorus 1

But you're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

I hear it all the time, you're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

Verse 2

The mirror that casts its reflection paints everything just as it is

My body that has no weight

When I hear your voice calling me

And I know

That you're scared and it's not a good time for you

And for what's been happening to us

You're afraid of feeling more than you should

The heart is a muscle; if it doesn't beat, it bursts. I miss

Looking at you from afar, playing dumb

We seem so old, time

You want more time

Look at my skin, don't you see what I feel?

You're for me, I'm for you

The wind told me that with a soft breeze

And I know that you're scared

And it's not a good time for you, for me

And for what's been happening to us

Outro

But you're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

I hear it all the time, you're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

You're for me

I hear it all the time, you're for me

The wind has told me, you're for me

I hear it all the time, you're for me

You're for me

revienta — bursts / explodes

Revienta is the Spanish word for 'bursts' or 'explodes'. It's a dramatic and forceful word that you don't often hear in a love song.

Julieta Venegas uses it to create a vivid metaphor: "El corazón es un músculo, si no late revienta" (The heart is a muscle, if it doesn't beat, it bursts). This intense imagery suggests that love is a feeling so powerful it can't be contained, making it a very memorable and exciting word to learn.

Mexican pop artist Julieta Venegas teams up with Anita Tijoux for a track that is totally stubborn about romance. The singer is fully convinced that two people belong together because she literally hears it everywhere—in passing shadows, everyday street noise, and especially the breeze ("Me lo ha dicho el viento, eres para mí" [The wind has told me, you are for me]). Even when the other person pulls back, feels overwhelmed, or asks for more time, she refuses to back down from what she feels is pure destiny.

Anita Tijoux steps in to call out that hesitation with some delightfully blunt imagery. She warns that holding back is dangerous because "El corazón es un músculo si no late revienta" (The heart is a muscle, if it doesn't beat it bursts). She points out the absurdity of pretending nothing is happening ("hacernos los tontos" [playing dumb]) and acting like cautious old folks. It is a sweet, direct pop song that treats love not as a complicated riddle, but as an undeniable fact whispered by a soft breeze.
