Rimowa Lyrics – Alejandro Sanz, ELENA ROSE

Rimowa Lyrics Meaning

In the first part, the singer talks about not replying and explains that it’s not because they’ve changed or stopped caring. Life has been moving too fast, and even though they feel they should let go, they haven’t had the time or emotional space to do it. They describe carrying a suitcase filled not with clothes but with memories, showing how heavy the past still feels.

Next, they start wondering if the other person still thinks about them. They imagine simple moments, like being near the ocean or being back in their hometown, and wonder whether those moments bring back thoughts of the relationship. They also ask about familiar places and people, showing that even though they’re far away, part of them still lives in the world they shared together. Even if they’re physically somewhere else, their heart still pulls them back.

Then, the singer admits that they’re the kind of person who reacts strongly to emptiness or loneliness. They say that their personality may have brought them some wins in life, but it has also cost them a lot, especially emotionally. Sometimes they want to reach out and write a message, but they stop themselves because they don’t want to offer only occasional attention. They feel the other person deserves better than a half-present version of them.

The song then shifts into a moment of self-awareness and care. The singer repeats that they don’t want to ruin the other person’s day. Even if they feel a strong urge to reconnect, they know that popping in and out of someone’s life can hurt. They seem to be fighting between wanting closeness and wanting to protect the other person from more emotional ups and downs.

A little later, the singer describes the tight feeling in their throat, like a sailor’s knot, showing the stress and sadness they carry. Even staying in fancy places doesn’t compare to the simple comfort they once felt looking at the stars from their partner’s window. They feel a deep ache inside, like they’ve lost almost everything except the memories they drag around with them. Their suitcase full of memories feels like the only thing they truly have left from that time in their life.

The singer again circles back to the same questions they can’t shake. They keep wondering if the other person still wants to return, to talk, or to revisit the connection they shared. These thoughts keep coming back no matter how far they travel or how much time passes.

Finally, they repeat their struggle: wanting to reach out but holding back. Their feelings haven’t disappeared, but they keep trying not to cause unnecessary pain. They remind themselves once more that the other person doesn’t deserve emotional confusion or mixed signals, even though the longing remains strong inside them.
