Follow you

Esta canción, claramente, no habla de Dios. No haré decir al autor algo que no dice. Sin embargo, recomiendo esta canción por la historia que hay detrás y la idea de amor que transmite.

Después de un duro proceso de separación entre Dan Raynolds (cantante de Imagine Dragons) y Aja Volkman (su mujer hasta ese momento), llega el momento de firmar el divorcio. Pero un mensaje de texto cambia el rumbo de la historia y da origen a esta canción: “puedo amarte sin expectativas”. ¿Cuántas historias de amor podrían resolverse al creerse esto? Un amor que no busca dominar, ni controlar, ni cambiar... ¡Pero qué trabajo cuesta!

I'll follow you es un canto al amor imperfecto, al amor humano. Y quizás sea esto lo que podamos llevarnos a la fe: el seguimiento y el amor tienen sus subidas y bajadas. También sus rechazos. Pero si el amor y el deseo son sinceros (no perfectos, sino humanamente sinceros) nos harán volver, nos harán decir, una vez más, te seguiré.

Imagine Dragons (Follow You)

You know I got your number, number all night
I'm always on your team, I got your back alright
Taking those, taking those losses if it treats you right
I want to put you into the spotlight
If the world would only know what you've been holding back
Heart attacks every night
Oh, you know it's not right
I will follow you way down wherever you may go
I'll follow you way down to your deepest low
I'll always be around wherever life takes you
You know I'll follow you
Call you up, you've been cryin', cryin' all night
You're only disappointed in yourself, alright
Taking those, taking those losses if it treats you right
I wanna take you into the sunlight
If the world would only know what you've been holding back
Heart attacks every night
Oh, you know it's not right
I will follow you way down wherever you may go
I'll follow you way down to your deepest low
I'll always be around wherever life takes you
You know I'll follow you
Ba-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Ba-da-da-da-da
You know I'll follow you
La-da-da-da-da
Wherever life takes you, you know I'll follow you
You're not the type to give herself enough love
She live her life, hand in a tight glove
I wish that I could fix it, I could fix it for you
But instead I'll be right here comin' through
(Right here, comin' through)
I will follow you way down wherever you may go
I'll follow you way down to your deepest low
I'll always be around wherever life takes you
You know I'll follow you
Ba-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
Ba-da-da-da-da
You know I'll follow you
La-da-da-da-da
Wherever life takes you, you know I'll follow you
