In this aria Don José declares his love for Carmen, but she belittles his passionate attempts to convince her of his feelings, saying that if he really loved her, he would take her away from her humble surroundings to a place where she could really be free.The arranger has added a short bridge passage between the opera's initial scenes of communal life centred around a cigarette factory and Don José's beautiful expression of his ill-fated love in Act II.
