Elsa Garcia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Aquí estoy presa de tu recuerdo en mi soledad
Ay amor
Son tantos años y no hay remedio para mi mal
Ay amor
Estoy vencida, no tengo fuerzas para luchar
Ay amor
No cabe duda que sigo siendo sentimental
¿Dónde estás?
Qué cielo cruzas sin extrañarme nube perdida
Por qué no vienes a iluminarme luz de mi vida
Regresa pronto que yo no vivo si no es por ti
¿Dónde estás? (¿Dónde estás?)
Detén tu vuelo y vuelve a casa nube viajera
Por una sola de tus caricias
Todo lo diera
Aunque volvieras de nuevo a irte
Lejos de mí
Ay amor
Aquí estoy presa de tu recuerdo en mi soledad
Ay amor
Son tantos años y no hay remedio para mi mal
Ay amor
Estoy vencida, no tengo fuerzas para luchar
Ay amor
No cabe duda que sigo siendo sentimental
¿Dónde estás? (¿Dónde estás?)
Qué cielo cruzas sin extrañarme nube perdida
Por qué no vienes a iluminarme luz de mi vida
Regresa pronto que yo no vivo si no es por ti
¿Dónde estás?
Detén tu vuelo y vuelve a casa nube viajera
Por una sola de tus caricias
Todo lo diera
Aunque volvieras de nuevo a irte
Lejos de mí
The lyrics to Elsa Garcia's song Nube Viajera (Traveling Cloud) express the pain and longing of a woman who is trapped in the memories of a past love. She confesses that she is helpless in her solitude, and despite the passing of many years, she still cannot find a cure for the pain she feels. The love that she felt was so intense that it has left her feeling emotionally defeated and unable to fight back. The lyricist describes herself as being sentimental, and it is clear that this trait has kept her bound to a love that is no longer hers to have.
The refrain of the song is a plea for the traveling cloud to come back home, as the singer cannot bear the thought of living without the light of her life. She describes the cloud as lost and wonders where it is traveling. The woman is desperate for the cloud to return, even just for a moment, so she can feel the touch of her lost love again. The lyrics of the song convey a deep sense of loss and emotional distress that many people can relate to when they have lost somebody they love.
