Pasaba por aqui
Aute Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lo que me hizo subir
Al ver aún encendida
La luz en la ventana de David
No pienses que te espío
No llego a ser tan ruin
Estorte que no creas
Y bien, qué tontería
No soy nada sutil
Si yo solo pasaba
Pasaba por aquí
Pasaba por aquí
Ningún teléfono cerca
Y no lo pude resistir
Pasaba por aquí
¿Qué esperas que te cuente?
Hay poco que decir
Tal vez me vaya un tiempo
No aguanto este coñazo de Madrid
Te veo muy distinta
¿Es nuevo ese carmín?
Estás mucho más guapa
¿Será que te embellece ser feliz?
Qué cosas se me ocurren
Todo esto es tan pueril
Si yo solo pasaba
Pasaba por aquí
Pasaba por aquí
Ningún teléfono cerca
Y no lo pude resistir
Pasaba por aquí
Pasaba por aquí
Ningún teléfono cerca
Y no lo pude resistir
Pasaba por aquí
In "Pasaba por aqui" by Aute, the singer describes a situation where they were passing by the house of someone named David and noticed that there was still a light on in the window. The time played a significant role in their decision to go and see what was happening.
The singer assures the person that they are not spying on them and they are not so low as to try to catch them in a compromising situation. It seems like there may be a slight suspicion or tension in their relationship, but the singer tries to downplay it by saying they just wanted to see what was going on.
The singer realizes their own lack of subtlety in the situation and acknowledges that they were just passing by without any specific purpose. They emphasize that there was no phone nearby that influenced their decision, suggesting that their actions were purely spontaneous and not planned.
There seems to be some distance between the singer and the person they address, as they mention that they don't have much to say and might leave Madrid for a while because they find it boring or tiresome. This could hint at a potential dissatisfaction or fatigue in their relationship and their need for some time away.
The singer notices a change in the person's appearance, specifically referencing their lipstick and overall beauty. They wonder if their newfound happiness is the reason behind this transformation and it seems to intrigue them.
In the end, the singer reflects on the triviality of their thoughts and actions, realizing that their motivations for passing by were quite silly. They reiterate that it was a spontaneous act and there was no ulterior motive behind it.
Overall, "Pasaba por aqui" portrays a casual encounter where the singer impulsively decides to stop by someone's house, exploring a range of emotions and thoughts as they observe and interact with the person they address.
