La casualidad se puso el disfraz de una mariposa
Que al vuelo se entregó soltando su efecto nos acarició
No imaginas cómo sería yo si hubiera esperado un segundo más el amor
Ni mis gestos ni mi propia voz, ni mis besos serían hoy de los dos
La casualidad se puso el disfraz de una mariposa
Que al vuelo se entregó soltando su efecto nos acarició
La casualidad se puso el disfraz de una mariposa
Que al vuelo se entregó soltando su efecto nos acarició
Si quieres venir conmigo a buscar la fórmula
Exacta de la realidad intenta escribir a los demás
Procura que nadie nos oiga marchar
Cada pregunta de cada respuesta de cada persona




De cada planeta de cada reflejo de cada cometa
De cada deseo de cada estrella

Overall Meaning

In "Mariposa," La Oreja De Van Gogh sings about the unpredictability of life and the power of chance. The lyrics describe how we often attempt to control every aspect of our lives, from our successes to our failures, and how much we rely on structure and order. However, the song argues that despite our attempts to plan out our lives, one small change, one moment of chance, can drastically alter our destiny.


The chorus of the song speaks directly to this idea, with the lyrics describing how chance takes the form of a butterfly, which flutters into our lives and changes everything. The butterfly's effect on our lives is described as a gentle caress, something that we cannot predict, control, or plan for.


The song's final verse is a call to embrace the uncertainty of life, to accept that we cannot control our destiny, and to explore the world and all of its mysteries. The lyrics encourage listeners to seek out the truth of the world, to ask questions, and to listen to their hearts, rather than relying on the opinions of others. Overall, "Mariposa" is a song about the beauty of chance, the power of fate, and the importance of embracing the unexpected in our lives.

Mariposa
[Chorus: Joseph]
I can't wait for you to come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep running
Just to find a way to you till then

[Verse 1: Tarrek]
I've been running from it
Tired of running from it
Scared of feeling something
Now I'm stuck here tryna get up outta this hole
I tried to be strong
I tried to make it work but I've been feeling too numb
Skies are beating on me
Why'd you leave me lonely?
Feeling Whitney, Stoney
Now I'm stuck here wondering where I ever went wrong
How could I be strong?
I'm fighting for your love

[Chorus: Joseph]
I can't wait for you to come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep running
Just to find a way to you till then

[Verse 2: Issac]
I don't see light in your love anymore
There ain't no reason to call in a fall
I don't like feelings or feeling like running from something
And feeling so out of control
I know that the feelings are gone
I'm spending too much time alone
I'm hoping you pick up the phone
And ring me when you wanna stay overnight
My shoulder's right
My baby's all that I want
And I play them, all of my favourite songs
That lady is my favourite one

[Chorus: Joseph]
I can't wait for you to come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep running
Just to find a way to you till then

[Bridge: Joseph]
Ain't never gonna let you go
Got my heart NASCAR racing
Shine ain't never fading
He just left you hanging
Fiending for your love
All worth it for the waiting
Give you what you need
Take you where you want
Can't feel it when we're all alone
Know you're wanting something more
My heart is like an open door
Just ring me when you wanna go

[Break: Joseph]
I'll wait till you're home
Hold a place till you're coming home
Show you where the garden grows
Just ring me when you wanna go

[Chorus: Joseph]
I can't wait for you to come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep running
Just to find a way to you till then

I can't wait for you
To come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep runnin'
Just to find a way to you til' then

I been running from it
Tired of running from it
Scared of feeling something now I'm stuck and tryna get up out of this hole
I tried to be strong
I tried to make it work but I've been feeling so numb
Skies are bleeding on me
Why'd you leave me lonely
Feeling Whitney Stoney now I'm stuck and wonder where I ever went wrong
How could I be strong
I'm fighting for your love

I can't wait for you
To come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep runnin'
Just to find a way to you til' then

I don't see light in your love anymore
There ain't no reason in pourin a 4
I don't like feelings or feeling like running from something and feeling so out of control
I know that the feeling is gone
I'm spending too much time alone
I'm hopin' you pick up the phone
And ring me when you wanna stay overnight
My shoulders right, my baby is all that I want
I'll play them all of my favorite songs
That lady is my favorite one

I can't wait for you
To come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep runnin'
Just to find a way to you til' then

Ain't never gonna let ya go
Got my heart nascar racing
Shine ain't ever fading
He just left ya hangin'
Fiendin for ya love
All worth it for the waiting
Give you what you need
Take you where he won't
Can feel it when we're all alone
Know your wanting something more
My heart is like an open door
Just ring me when you wanna go

I'll wait
Till you're home
Hold a place till you're comin home
Show you where the garden grows
Just ring me when you wanna go

I can't wait for you
To come my way
I've been far away
But I'll keep runnin'
