Discover the story of the song > Por el Viejo Barrio – Xoel López

The lyrics are about a person who wants to remember their romantic partner in a certain way and doesn't want to see or talk to them anymore. They heard that their partner was seen in their old neighborhood, but they pray that their partner's sins don't take them too far away. The person reflects on how they used to offer everything to their partner without asking for anything in return, and regrets that their partner never asked about their feelings. They also mention that if their partner ever comes back and knocks on their door, they won't be living in the same neighborhood anymore.
