Amaia Montero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pequeñitos que no van a ninguna parte
Hoy, daria, lo que fuera de mi vida
Por salir de esta mentira why entregarme
A un mundo donde el amor se pierde solo en una esquina
Why aun busco donde tu why yo perdimos la partida
La que tanto quise ser
La que tanto yo soñé
La que todavía te quería
Ser, la que tú no puedes ver
La que aún te tiende fe
La que todavía te recuerda, ser
Hoy, presiento, que ha llegado el momento
De mirar en tu reflejo why enfrentarte
Hoy, quisiera, despertarme entre algodones
Why escuchar tus bendiciones why llevarte
A un mundo en que el amor se pierde solo en una esquina
Why aun busco donde tu why yo perdimos la partida
why ahora quiero ser
La que tanto quise ser
La que tanto yo soñé
La que todavía te quería
Ser, la que tú no puedes ver
La que aún te tiende fe
La que todavía te recuerda, ser
why hoy, las emociones pueden ser tal vez
Armas de doble filo que se creen
Que todo gira entorno a sus mentiras
why hoy, rezó para k todo salga bien
Que la esperanza puede ser también
La que otra vez me enseñe la salida
why ahora quiero ser
La que tanto quise ser
La que tanto yo soñé
La que todavía te quería
Ser, la que tú no puedes ver
La que aún te tiende fe
La que todavía te recuerda
The lyrics to Amaia Montero's song "Circulos" paint a picture of someone going around in circles, going nowhere. The singer expresses a desire to escape this lie and enter a world where love is not lost in a corner, while still holding onto memories of love with someone who seems blind to who she really is. She wants to be the person she always dreamed of being, the person who still loves this person, the person who still remembers.
The singer senses that it is time to face this person, to look at their reflection and confront them. She wants to wake up in a world of comfort and hear their blessings, take them to a world where love is not lost in a corner, and find where they lost the game. The emotions felt today can be weapons that revolve around lies, but the singer still hopes that everything turns out well, and that hope can lead her to the exit.
The song explores themes of love, desperation, and the search for self-identity. It is a call to face a situation head-on and not get caught up in going around in circles.
