Lady del mañana
Coz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Me diste lo que quise tener
Y no lo supe agradecer
Me has hecho más fuerte
Me viste crecer
Cubriste mi camino de miel
Y me olvidé de serte fiel
Yo soy como el mar
Pero no te he mentido,
Siempre he sentido cuando fallé
Lady de la mañana, del amanecer
Yo nunca he resistido
Cuando la noche tiende su red
Y tú has comprendido
Me has vuelto a creer
Y secas el rocío
Que en la mañana cubre mi piel
Yo soy como el mar
A veces cruel
Pero no te he mentido,
Siempre he sentido cuando fallé
Y no me haces reproches por fallar
No es fácil de explicar
Es algo que se llega a comprender
Cuando se te conoce un poco más
The lyrics to Coz's song Lady del mañana are a reflection on a past relationship and the regret that comes with realizing your mistakes too late. The chorus repeats the phrase "Lady del mañana, Lady del ayer," which translates to "Lady of tomorrow, Lady of yesterday." The singer acknowledges that this person gave them everything they wanted and needed, but they didn't appreciate it at the time. The relationship made the singer stronger and helped them grow, but they were unfaithful and forgetful of the other person's worth. The phrase "Yo soy como el mar, a veces cruel" means "I am like the sea, sometimes cruel," emphasizing the unpredictable nature of the singer's actions and emotions.
The second verse shows that the relationship may have gone through a rough patch, with the mention of the night's "red net" and the acknowledgement that the other person has had to forgive the singer before. The line "Y secas el rocío que en la mañana cubre mi piel" means "And you dry the dew that covers my skin in the morning," possibly representing the other person's comforting and nurturing nature. The final lines of the song suggest that despite the mistakes made, the other person still accepts and understands the singer. The line "Es algo que se llega a comprender cuando se te conoce un poco más" means "It's something that is understood when you know someone a little bit more."
Overall, Lady del mañana is a poignant reflection on a past relationship and the regret that comes with realizing your mistakes too late. The lyrics are emotive and descriptive, painting a picture of a tumultuous but deeply meaningful love affair.
