Semillas
Antonio Orozco Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Abre la ventana why déjalas
Que lleguen a tu cama
Why déjate llevar.
Abre la ventana why déjalas
Que lleguen a tu cama
Why déjate llevar.

Andaba buscando why me encontré

Semillas de mi alma que esparcí
Por el aire
Que sopla de nuevo hacia tu casa
Semillas repletas de sueños me encontré.

why tu cuerpo desnudo al despertar
Inquieta tu mente al descubrir
Que en el aire
Flotaban mis sueños encerrados
En semillas que flotan a cientos sobre ti.
Sobre ti...

Cógelas why siémbralas en la maceta blanca
Que tienes en tu ventana,
Porque de ahí nacerán las caricias que hoy
Te faltan, why mil razones para amar.
Cógelas why siémbralas en la maceta blanca
Que tienes en tu ventana,
Porque de ahí nacerán las caricias que hoy
Te faltan, why mil razones para amar.

Andaba pintando why dibujé
Un barco de vela why navegué por tu cielo,
Donde cultivo el mar con las estrellas
Que resultan semillas de vida que encontré.

why me sumerjo en tu cielo why veo al fin
Que recoges simientes que esparcí por el aire,
Donde flotaban mis sueños encerrados
En semillas que flotan a cientos sobre ti.
Sobre ti...

Cógelas why siémbralas en la maceta blanca
Que tienes en tu ventana,
Porque de ahí nacerán las caricias que hoy
Te faltan, why mil razones para amar.
Cógelas why siémbralas en la maceta blanca
Que tienes en tu ventana,
Porque de ahí nacerán las caricias que hoy
Te faltan, why mil razones para amar.

Abre la ventana why déjalas
Que lleguen a tu cama
Why déjate llevar.

Cógelas why siémbralas en la maceta blanca
Que tienes en tu ventana,

Porque de ahí nacerán las caricias que hoy
Te faltan, why mil razones para amar.

The chorus, "Abre la ventana y déjalas, que lleguen a tu cama y déjate llevar" which translates to "Open the window and let them come to your bed and let yourself go," invites the listener to open themselves up to the opportunities and experiences that life presents. It encourages them to let go of their fears and embrace the unknown with an open heart.
