Senorita
Dub Fx Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You seem to me, like the perfect queen /
I'm over joyed that you're in to me /
I can't believe what is happening /
If only this love was meant to be /
Don't cry for me Señorita /
I'm already taken and i'll break your heart deeper /
Stand back into the light where I can see ya /
You're only a fantasy for me but I'm a dreamer /
In another life we could truly be together /
You could be my wife I could be yours forever /
Slow dance and hold hands in romance whenever /
Ride into the sunset in all kinds of weather /
Even if we had a little moment /
I gave my heart away to another /
She told me she would hold it /
And that she'd always be my lover /
I always thought I owned it /
But now I see we're made for each other /




I know I kinda loaned it to you /
But girl you can always be my brother \\

Overall Meaning

In Dub Fx's song "Senorita," the lyrics express a bittersweet feeling of a love that could have been. The song starts by describing the singer's admiration for someone, whom he regards as a "perfect queen." He feels lucky that this person is interested in him, and he can't believe his luck. However, the lyrics continue to show a sense of remorse, highlighting that the singer is already in love with someone else, leaving this love as nothing but a distant dream.


The chorus, "Don't cry for me, Senorita / I'm already taken and I'll break your heart deeper," sheds light on the singer's struggle with his own feelings. He acknowledges that they could have been together, in another life, but he has already given his heart to someone else, making it impossible for him to reciprocate the love that the Senorita has for him.


The final verse reveals that the singer's love interest had promised to hold his heart forever, but that has now changed. He realizes that he was wrong about the person he had given his heart to and that he was always meant to be with the Senorita. Even though he has given his heart away, he still feels a connection with the Senorita and wants to express this feeling, however impossible it may be.

@mattandorn6343

Still one of my favorite musicians, if not my favorite. Saw Dub FX live in Philadelphia when he toured US and Canada. Really hope they all tours the states again.

@heyitspixie

What a beautiful and honest confession this is... I deeply respect and admire the music you have inside, and the power and simplicity with which you're able to transmit all of your thoughts, it's incredible.

@kojukin

+heyitspixie It's truly amazing to hear the beating heart of music after listening to pale imitations of it for years. It's like being born again, or being woken up from a long, unsatisfying dream.

@Alexa saw and met him just before all the lockdowns started and it really was the best way to say goodbye to live music for 2 years.
