Enrique Iglesias Ft. Sean Garrett - Away

Here's an amazing song from Enrique Iglesias with Sean Garrett. This song has a lot of meaning to me so that's why I like it tremendously. Enrique makes countless songs with the same passion this one holds. His music seems to have a constant relevance to others that listen to him, which I think is great.
I like the metaphors he illustrates and seeing how everything seems to fall apart in the relationship. What's very interesting is how he also say's that his girl asked him why he was so "skeptic of love". Yet he still opens his arms for her and gives it a chance, then it all turns around. She promised she wouldn't give up on them, but unexpectedly she blows him.
I can understand the feeling of what he is describing in this song, and I'm pretty sure many of you folks do as well. This guy willingly gives up his heart, his emotions, and his strength to this one girl. In the end, she breaks him. One line or phrase I like in this song is,

"I just wanna be here to pick up the little pieces of remains I'm going down, the plane is smoking, and the only one Who can save me is you but you wanna throw me Away...".

What I grasp, is that even though their relationship was falling he was still trying to make things better. But his girl did not reciprocate with the same intention, and instead wants it to be over. I really feel his pain here because I've gone through it myself. It's the most painful thing you'll ever go through in your life.
Another awesome line that made me think was when he says,

"You start to live the dream and before you know There's a door that open, and the moment you walk in it close".

It's basically restating the first line I mentioned but in a different illustration. Here his love for this girl is like a "dream", and you know how dreams feel. Dreams is the most amazing process one can have. It's a high that's better than anything in the world. So metaphorically, his in this dream walking towards this door that is wide open but suddenly it closes. This is really well drawn out.

Overall, what I got from this song is that he tries to make things better but the girl doesn't put the same effort, and instead she just ends it. And he wants to know why, knowing that putting the effort shows that he really cares. Yet the girl is to blind and stubborn to even see that and does not even bother contributing some effort. From experience, this is really confusing why a girl will promise you something but later down the road contradicts what she said. Hence the re-occurrence of the word "why?". To this day I still ask, WHY?

Anyways here's the song:

Leave me a comment with anything that's on your mind after hearing and reading this.
