En Tu Calle Sin Salida
Azúcar Moreno Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No me canso de esperar
Por verte pasar mi vida
Por verte pasar
Se que no puedo mirarte
Y que no te puedo hablar
Que nunca podré besarte
No sabes tu lo que siento
No será tu boca fuente
Como tampoco es el viento
Para besarte la frente
Quisiera ser caracola
Puerta de melancolía
Para estar en tu consola
Amor de noche y día
En tu calle sin salida
No me canso de esperar
Por verte pasar mi vida
Amor, por verte pasar
Y al llegar la madrugada
Me desangro yo de ver
Que en tu vida no soy nada
Yo no soy nada, nada
De lo que quisiera ser
Quisiera ser caracola
Puerta de melancolía
Para estar en tu consola
Amor de noche y día
Y al llegar la madrugada
Me desangro yo de ver
Que en tu vida no soy nada
Yo no soy nada, nada
De lo que quisiera ser
En tu calle sin salida
Esperando tu querer
The song "En Tu Calle Sin Salida" by Azúcar Moreno is about unrequited love. The singer is waiting in a dead-end street to catch a glimpse of the person they love, who they can't talk to or embrace. They know they can never be with this person, but they still hold onto the hope of seeing them one more time.
The opening lines of the song set a melancholic mood, as the singer waits motionlessly for their beloved in a street that leads nowhere. The repetition of the line "Por verte pasar" (to see you pass by) reinforces the singer's longing for the unattainable. The second stanza highlights the impossibility of the singer's desires: "Se que no puedo mirarte...ni tu cancel abrazar," emphasizing that the one they love is out of reach.
The third stanza is particularly poignant, as the singer realizes that their love will never be reciprocated, "No sabes tu lo que siento...ni tu boca fuente." The metaphor of the wind not being able to kiss the loved one's forehead further emphasizes this point. The fourth stanza offers a slight glimmer of hope, as the singer wishes to be a "caracola" (seashell) where they could be part of the loved one's world.
The song concludes with a repeated refrain that emphasizes the singer's pain and the futility of their love. Even though they bleed internally, their love will not be returned, and they will remain insignificant in their beloved's life.
