Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y apaga todo en la casa
¿No ves que estamos muy lejos?
Por favor, ven aquí
Despierta mi corazón dormido
¿No ves que estamos muy lejos?
Uuuaahh
Mil veces ya
Te has ido lejos
Y llevas puesto ese disfraz
Y no eres tú, uh uh uuuuhh.
Por favor, no hables más (Shh)
Vuelve a ser dulce conmigo
¿No ves que estamos muy lejos?
Uhhhh aaahh.
Regresa ya, vuelve a ser dulce
A veces no te reconozco
Y no eres tú, uhuhuh
No eres tuuuuú.
The lyrics to Atkinson's song Mil Veces convey a sense of distance and disconnect between the singer and their partner. The opening lines of the song implore the partner to come closer and turn off all the lights in the house, indicating a desire for intimacy and emotional closeness. The repetition of the plea "¿No ves que estamos muy lejos?" ("Don't you see that we are very far apart?") emphasizes this feeling of separation.
As the song progresses, the singer reveals that their partner has changed in some way, stating "Y llevas puesto ese disfraz / Y no eres tú" ("And you're wearing that disguise / And you're not yourself"). This suggests that something about the partner's behavior or attitude has shifted, causing the singer to feel a sense of alienation or disconnection from them. The repeated refrain "Uuh uh uuuuhh / Uhhhh aaahh" adds to the emotional weight of the song, underscoring the singer's desperation and longing for their partner to return to them.
