The song A La Playa Al Fin (At Last to the Beach) by Julio Iglesias is about a lost love and the pain of letting go. The lyrics describe a scene where the narrator throws a handkerchief into a river, which symbolizes the last memory of the love he once had. As he watches it sink to the bottom, he realizes that their love has also disappeared from his life. The narrator reflects on how slowly but surely, his love for this person had faded away, much like the handkerchief sinking into the river. He knows that one day, the handkerchief will wash up on the shore, but he also knows that even when that happens, he will never be completely happy without the person he loved. In his loneliness, he remembers their happy times together and how they used to bring light to each other's lives. But now, in a place where they used to be happy, he feels nothing but darkness. The song conveys a deep sense of loss, regret, and heartache. It speaks to the pain of letting go of someone you love, while struggling to move on and find happiness without them.
