Canyon Del Maipo
Alamedas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Podría quedarme a dormir
Aquí no hace frío
Después de todo lo que ha pasado
Se viene la noche
Se viene la noche
La noche se viene
Podría quedarme a dormir
Después de todo lo que ha pasado
Se viene la noche
Se viene la noche
La noche se viene
Podría quedarme a dormir
Aquí no hace frío
Después de todo lo que ha pasado
Oh se viene la noche
La noche se viene
Oh se viene la noche
La noche se viene
The song Canyon Del Maipo by Alamedas is a haunting and introspective piece about finding solace and comfort in the darkness of night. The first verse sets the stage by declaring the approach of nightfall, which is a symbol for the darker and more uncertain times in our lives. Despite this, the singer hints that staying in the present moment wouldn't be too bad, especially given that "here" it doesn't get too cold, a nod to the idea of finding warmth and shelter amidst adversity. The repetition of "se viene la noche" underscores the looming sense of dread and uncertainty, pointing to the inevitability that comes with life's struggles.
However, in the chorus, the tone shifts slightly, as the singer entertains the idea of staying grounded and embracing the encroaching darkness. The repetition of the phrase "podría quedarme a dormir" reinforces a sense of calm and stillness, while the focus on the lack of cold also accentuates the idea of finding comfort in small things amidst a larger sense of chaos. The final repetition of "la noche se viene" signifies both an acceptance of the inevitable difficulties of life, as well as a recognition of the beauty and depth that can be found in them.
Overall, the song is a meditative and melancholy reflection on the cyclical nature of life and the importance of finding peace and meaning even in the darkest moments.
