Luna
Eli & The Cryptids Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Luna, luna dime dónde estás

Te he buscado sobre el mar

Y por toda la ciudad

Luna,quédate un instante más
Ya el amanecer vendrá

Y no quiero olvidarte



Y a la luz de tu sonrisa van

Para decirte adiós

Y un mar de mariposas

Que vuelan en mi interior

Luna no te escondas

Solo deja contemplarte hoy



Luna luna por qué desperté

Hoy sońé que era astronauta

Y hasta acaricié tu piel

Luna, se muy bien que el sol saldrá

Quizá el tiempo se detenga

Y así nunca más te irás.



Y a la luz de tu sonrisa van

Para decirte adiós

Y un mar de mariposas

Que vuelan en mi interior

Luna no te escondas





Solo deja contemplarte hoy

Overall Meaning

In Eli & The Cryptids's song Luna, the singer is desperately searching for the moon (luna) both physically and symbolically. They have looked for the moon over the sea and throughout the entire city, showing that their search is not just for the physical moon but for something greater. The singer wants the moon to stay a little longer, as they know that dawn is approaching and they do not want to forget the feeling of searching for it. The lyrics convey a sense of longing and melancholy as the singer tries to hold on to this fleeting moment.


The second verse of the song adds a dream-like quality to the song, as the singer talks about dreaming of being an astronaut and touching the moon's surface. This adds to the idea that the moon is not just a physical object, but a symbol of something greater that the singer is searching for. The final chorus repeats the same idea - the singer wants to hold onto the moment of admiring the moon, represented here through the imagery of a sea of butterflies in their stomach, before it fades away.


Overall, Luna is a song that captures the feeling of longing and the desire to hold onto fleeting moments of beauty in life. The moon is used as a powerful symbol throughout the song, representing a search for something greater and a desire to stay in the moment before it passes.

We need a class-action lawsuit for the irretrievable loss of 16 minutes and 30 seconds each.

@tscott6843 Your comment is just the funniest thing. With bad videos like this one, One really only tunes in to read Comments.

@Miss_Maggie

Haha, I had a funny feeling and (FORTUNATELY) I decided to quickly scroll through it - before committing my time to watching.
I saw basically nothing so I came to the comments to see if there was SOMETHING I missed.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Nope!

The only thing that bothered me was that they still got my ‘click’ - so I made sure to make it worth it - by giving the video it a THUMBS DOWN! 👎🏻
