Chichi Peralta Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Recobrar todo lo que dejaste
Despertarás y solo para darte cuenta
De que fuiste tú quien me fallaste
Sé que por hoy la pena solo ríe porque
Solo me quedan mil noches sin dormir
Al fin y al cabo tu despertarás
Despertarás, y tu mente quedará llena
Del lodo en el que me embarraste
Despertarás, solo para darte cuenta
Que fuiste tú quien me fallaste
Sé que por hoy la pena solo ríe porque
Solo me quedan, mil noches sin dormir
Al fin y al cabo tu despertarás
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a desearme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a quererme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a desearme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a quererme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a querer volver, yo lo sé y vas a
Querer tenerme
Vas a querer volver, yo lo sé y vas a
Querer tenerme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Sé que por la pena solo ríe porque
Solo me quedan, mil noches sin dormir
Al fin y al cabo tu despertarás
Vas a quererme
Vas a quererme
Vas a quererme
Vas a quererme
Vas a quererme
Sé que por la pena solo ríe porque
Solo me quedan, mil noches sin dormir
Al fin y al cabo tu despertarás
Vas a desearme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a quererme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a desearme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a quererme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a querer volver, yo lo sé y vas a
Querer tenerme
Vas a querer volver, yo lo sé y vas a
Querer tenerme
Vas a quererme, vas a quererme
Porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta
Que lo pierde
Vas a querer volver, vas a querer volver
The lyrics of Chichi Peralta's song Hasta Que Lo Pierde describe the aftermath of a failed relationship. The song starts with a warning that one day the listener will wake up and realize it is too late to recover what they had lost in the relationship. The singer then tells the listener that they will have to live with the knowledge that they were the one who failed in the relationship. The chorus repeats the phrase "porque nadie sabe lo que tiene hasta que lo pierde," which means "because no one knows what they have until they've lost it."
The singer then acknowledges the pain they are feeling and the many restless nights ahead of them. They know that eventually, the ex-partner will also wake up, but it will be too late because they will have lost what they once had. The chorus repeats, emphasizing the message that people often do not appreciate what they have until it's gone.
The final few lines of the song predict that the ex-partner will eventually come back and want to be with the singer again, but the singer knows that it is because they now understand what they had taken for granted.
Overall, the song captures the heartache that comes with a failed relationship and emphasizes the importance of appreciating what one has before they lose it.
