Perderme Contigo
Bacilos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No es pa' dejarlo guardado
No es para encerrarlo
En ninguna jaula
Aburrida
Si te estoy robando el corazón
No es para luego perderme
Cuando esté seguro
De que ya sea mío
Y si me voy a perder
Quiero perderme contigo
Bailando al fondo de un bar
En una vieja ciudad
Como bandidos
Y si me voy a perder
Quiero perderme contigo
Otro tequila con sal
Si quieres pórtate mal
Pero conmigo
Si te estoy robando el corazón
No es por ser coleccionista
No es para enmarcarlo
Ni para mostrarlo
A mis amigos
Tanta gente quiere decir, quiere opinar, y criticar
Pero al final nadie más entiende esta locura
Yo a tu lado puedo volar, puedo subir, puedo bajar
El amor eterno es un helado de dulzura
Y yo quiero disfrutarlo lentamente, mientras dura
Y si me voy a perder
Quiero perderme contigo
Bailando al fondo de un bar
En una vieja ciudad
Como bandidos
Y si me voy a perder
Quiero perderme contigo
Otro tequila con sal
Si quieres pórtate mal
Pero conmigo
Llevo soñando con tenerte
Desde antes de conocerte
Ven y dime niña cómo, cuándo y dónde
Tu amor es una fantasía
Me lo sueño todo el día
Y te busco como un loco por la noche
Vamos a volar a cualquier ciudad
A la Habana, o a Quito, o a Bogotá
Vamos a París, vamos al Perú
Voy a dónde tú quieras si quieres tú
Y si me voy a perder
Quiero perderme contigo
Y el que me quiera encontrar
Puede venirme a buscar
En tu vestido
Y si me voy a perder
Quiero perderme contigo
Otro tequila con sal
Si quieres pórtate mal
Pero conmigo
In Bacilos's song Perderme Contigo, the singer describes his desire to steal his lover's heart not to keep it locked up, but to experience life with her. The lyrics express a need to escape with his lover, to get lost in the world together, whether it's through dancing in a bar or exploring a new city. The desire to be with his lover is also expressed in the line "Llevo soñando con tenerte" which means, "I have been dreaming of having you" since before they met. The singer also comments on how everyone else tries to have a say in the relationship, but at the end of the day, only the two of them truly understand the connection they share. He just wants to enjoy the sweetness of their love while it lasts.
Throughout the song, the singer expresses his desire to experience life with his lover in a carefree and adventurous way. He wants to take a risk, to be a rebel and get lost with her; he wants to make memories and cherish the moments shared together. The chorus repeats the lyrics, "Y si me voy a perder, quiero perderme contigo" which means "And if I'm going to lose myself, I want to lose myself with you." In this line, the singer expresses a willingness to face the unknowns of life, as long as he is with the one he loves. The song's joyful melody encompasses the sense of adventure, making it an uplifting song that captures the essence of love, passion, and adventure.
