They recorded their first album, "Canciones profanas" in 1983, under the name, Dinarama + Alaska. The subsequent year, under pressure from their record label, they changed their name to Alaska y Dinarama, becoming one of Spain's huge record selling acts during the mid eighties.

Solo Por Hoy
Alaska y Dinarama Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Como analizar, resolver,
eliminar la ingratitud
pude convertirme en un inútil
inseguro como tú.

Quejas, lamentos, temor
a lo inexplicable

Sólo por hoy pediré perdón
pediré compasión
ejercitare mi alma.

Pensaré en nada
bajare la guardia
pensare en nada

Buscare la llave en el fondo
en lo más hondo del volcán.
Cuántas veces hay que repetirlo
no te quiero ver llorar.

¿Quién eres tú para derramar
para malgastar
Mal vender mi tiempo?

Sólo por hoy pediré perdón
pediré compasión
ejercitare mi alma.

Pensaré en nada

bajare la guardia
pensare en nada
