Discover the story of the song > Cruz de Olvido – Vicente Fernández

The protagonist is leaving his romantic partner at sunset, with a heavy heart but believing it is for the best. He promises that his departure is not because he doesn't love her, but rather to spare her pain. He knows he will suffer in solitude, but he would rather leave than hurt her. The boat he sails away on carries a cross of forgetfulness and love, and without her, he will die of bitterness on that cross.
