No te acuerdas cuando entonces
bajabas descalza a abrirme
y ahora tú no me conoces
You don't remember when
you would come down barefoot to let me in
and now you don't even know me
Manuel de la Curra sang this letra at Adriana Maresma's flamenco show, Colores del Alma, here in Portland last week.
Spanish painter, Ignacio Tovar says this verse talks about passionate relationships that become cold with the passing of time. I came across this article which discusses an exposition of his entitled Bajabas descalza a abrirme. Tovar is a lover of flamenco and gives many of his pieces flamenco inspired titles; mostly words from soleares.
