Tú Me Vas
Diana Navarro Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Por la ciudad de los tejados
Pasa el amor de casa en casa casi sin mirar.
El aire sopla enamorado,
Abro la boca y me lo bebo sin pensar.
Me echo a temblar como un brazo de mar
Cuando quisiera besarte
Y tú me vas,
Y tú me va,
Y tú me vas más que mi vida, mucho más.
Y tú me vas, ay, si,
Y tú me vas.
Y tú me vas completamente, tú me vas,
Y qué me importan los demás.
Niño tú me vas,
Niño tú me vas.
Ya sale el sol entre los pinos.
Todas las penas se hacen agua y dejan de doler.
Yo pienso en ti, y sólo en ti, mi remolino,
Ansiosamente me acuerdo de ti
Cuando me dicen las nubes
Que andas lloviendo por ahí.
Y tú me vas
Mi niño tú me vas.
The lyrics of Diana Navarro's song "Tu Me Vas" describe the overwhelming feeling of being in love with someone and the longing to be close to them, even when they are not physically present. The first verse sets the scene of love passing through the city without much attention, while the singer is feeling the gusts of love and drinking them in without a second thought. However, there is a sense of frustration, as the singer cannot kiss the person they love, causing them to shiver like the waves of the sea. The chorus repeats the sentiment that this person, the subject, is more important to the singer than anything or anyone else, and they make them feel alive in a way that nothing else can.
The second verse refers to the healing power of nature, as the sun rises and washes away all the pain, leaving the singer with only thoughts of the person they love. The bridge refers to the idea that the singer is not with the person they love but is aware of their movements as they travel through different cities, causing them to feel a deep sense of longing.
