Dime Que Me Quieres
Azúcar Moreno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nunca te tuve cuando yo te necesité
Gritando tu nombre por las calles
Buscando un rincón donde encontrarte
Y nunca supe buscar
Y ahora que te he perdido
Yo me quiero echar atrás
Dime que me quieres, que me amas
Por favor, tan solo una vez mas
Dime que me quieres, que me amas
Por favor, tan solo una vez mas
Solo en la noche yo no dejo de pensar
Que dura es la vida, que dura es la verdad
Las paredes de mi cuarto parecen de color
Desde que tu no estás no palpita el corazón
Sueño contigo cada noche
Y lloro cada noche, oye
Dime que me quieres, que me amas
Por favor, tan solo una vez mas
Dime que me quieres, que me amas
Por favor, tan solo una vez mas
Dime que me quieres, que me amas
Por favor, tan solo una vez mas
Dime que me quieres, que me amas
Por favor, tan solo una vez mas
In Azúcar Moreno's song "Dime Que Me Quieres," the lyrics express the pain and longing of a person who feels rejected and ignored by their lover. The opening lines, "Ya no me vale que tu quieras volver, nunca te tuve cuando yo te necesité" (It's no longer enough that you want to come back, I never had you when I needed you), convey the frustration and bitterness of not receiving the love and support they needed from their partner.
The chorus, "Dime que me quieres, que me amas, por favor, tan solo una vez mas" (Tell me that you want me, that you love me, please, just one more time), reveals the desperate plea for affection and validation. They yearn for their lover to acknowledge their worth and to express their love, even if it's just one last time. The repetition of this plea emphasizes the depth of their longing, suggesting that the person is still deeply in love despite the pain they have endured.
The second verse further illustrates the emotional turmoil they are experiencing. The line "Solo en la noche yo no dejo de pensar, que dura es la vida, que dura es la verdad" (Alone at night I can't stop thinking, how hard life is, how hard the truth is) reflects their loneliness and contemplation of the harsh realities of life. The mention of the colorless walls and the absence of a beating heart symbolize the emptiness and sadness they feel after losing their lover.
Overall, "Dime Que Me Quieres" captures the emotional rollercoaster of love and longing, portraying the pain of feeling unloved and unappreciated while desperately yearning for that love to be reciprocated.
