La chica del disfraz
Danny Daniel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh, sonaba aquel
Viejo saxofón
Entre risas del carnaval

Calles de papel
Yo la vi pasar
Y en mis sueños hoy vuelve a estar
Pero un sueño más es muy poco más
Porque al despertar se ha marchado ya
Y al correr detrás solo puedo ver su disfraz

Eran como el mar
Verdes como el mar
Esos ojos con antifaz

Con un verso más
Voy a recordar
A esa chica con su disfraz

Pero un sueño más es muy poco más
Porque al despertar se ha marchado ya
Y al correr detrás solo puedo ver su disfraz

Han pasado ya
Muchos años ya
Nadie ríe en la ciudad

Calles de papel
Hoy son de metal
Todo el mundo lleva antifaz

Pero un sueño más es muy poco más




Porque al despertarme se ha marchado ya
Y al correr detrás solo puedo ver su disfraz

Overall Meaning

In Danny Daniel's song La chica del disfraz, the singer reminisces about a girl he saw at a carnival many years ago, who he is unable to forget even now. The song opens with the sound of an old saxophone and the laughter of the carnival, which sets the mood of a wistful reminiscence. The singer then remembers seeing the girl with an antifaz (a mask worn at carnivals), and how her eyes were as green as the sea. He repeats the line "Pero un sueño más es muy poco más" (But one more dream is not enough) to emphasize how much he wants to see her again.


However, as the song progresses, the singer realizes that he is unable to find her, and that she only exists in his dreams. He tries to catch up to her, but all he can see is her disfraz. The song takes a melancholic tone as the singer acknowledges that many years have passed, and nobody laughs in the city anymore. The streets that were once made of colorful paper are now metallic, and everyone wears an antifaz, perhaps signifying the loss of individuality and the prevalence of conformity.


Overall, the song's lyrics paint a nostalgic picture of a longing for a past that can never be recaptured. It speaks to the universal human experience of fleeting happiness and the unrelenting passage of time.
