Amélie
El Secreto de Amelie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
cayó ante mis pies
el brillo de sus ojos se refleja en mi pared, la luna puesta
en pie
las noches son mas largas desde aquella última vez que en
vano lo intente
perdido entre las líneas caducadas de un papel, siempre me
acordaré
De cuando me decías que siempre me querrías que nunca me
olvidarías que ibas a morir de amor
tu me engañabas con estúpidas palabras de promesas inventadas
que no tienen ya valor
Quiero saber donde estará el secreto de tu piel como ayer,
se me escapa y se me esconde
quiero volver a recorrer los pasos que borré otra vez,
volveré a escribir tu nombre
La historia de palabras que en la arena me invente, con las
olas se fué
promesas de vidrio que me hiciste ayer, siempre me acordaré
De cuando decías que siempre me querrías que nunca me
olvidarías que ibas a morir de amor
tu me engañabas con estúpidas palabras de promesas inventadas
que no tienen ya valor
Quiero saber donde estará el secreto de tu piel como ayer,
se me escapa y se me esconde
quiero volver a recorrer los pasos que borré otra vez,
volveré a escribir tu nombre
En las que decías que siempre me querrías que nunca me
olvidarías que ibas a morir de amor
tu me engañabas con estúpidas palabras de promesas
inventadas que no tienen ya valor
Cuando me decías que siempre me querrías que nunca me
olvidarías que ibas a morir de amor
tu me engañabas con estúpidas palabras de promesas
inventadas que no tienen ya valor
The lyrics to El Secreto de Amelie's song "Amelie" describe a sense of vulnerability and deception in a romantic relationship. The singer tells the story of an "eternal sin" they invented, which fell at their feet. The shine in their lover's eyes reflects on the wall, with the moon standing tall. The nights are longer since the last time they attempted to fix things. Lost among the expired lines of a paper, the singer will always remember these moments. They mention the promises of love and eternal devotion their lover made, but which were mere words spoken with no real value. The singer longs to uncover the secret of their lover's skin, to walk the steps they've erased, and write their name again.
The lyrics convey a sense of yearning, regret, and pain in memory of a love that was not as it seemed. They suggest that the promises made were empty and that they long to return to a time when things were real. The song describes romantic betrayal explicitly, with the singer feeling deceived by the empty promises their lover had given them. However, the memories of the time spent together seem to be etched deeply in their mind, with the singer seeming to be desperate to regain what they had lost.
