A Veces Lyrics in English Willie Gonzalez
Hipocresía translates to "hypocrisy". It's a strong and emotionally charged word that stands out in the lyrics, conveying a sense of betrayal and disillusionment.
In the song, Willie Gonzalez uses this word to express the pain and distrust he feels after a breakup, lamenting the "mentira hipocresía" (lying hypocrisy) he perceives around him. It highlights a deeper emotional struggle beyond just a simple heartbreak, making it a compelling word for learners.
"A Veces" is a bachata song about the fear that creeps back in after a breakup, even when you're trying to move on.
The singer asks love itself to forget the bitterness of the past, but admits that sometimes the fear and hurt still catch up with him. He doesn't tell his story to just anyone. Only to his ángel, a guardian figure who comforts him and takes the fear away.
He looks back on being betrayed and lied to, on friends who disappeared, and on the night his partner left after they had been so close. Through it all he keeps circling back to the same plea: let what happened stay in the past, and let him love again without the hypocrisy and fear that surround him.
By the end he's still waiting, hoping the person comes back, even as he admits how often the fear returns.
