Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
esperas que salga el sol
y el sol no está
entonces nena
es de día
y quieres ver el anochecer
y el sol está
cuándo nuestro amor he matado yo
y me dirás asesino
cuándo nuestro amor he matado yo
cuándo nuestro amor
No reproches
ni pintes de color mi pared
color ya fue
entonces nena
no me escuches
si toco esta canción otra vez
mi error ya fue
Te preguntarás
cuándo nuestro amor he matado yo
y me dirás asesino
cuándo nuestro amor he matado yo
cuándo nuestro amor
Te preguntarás
cuándo nuestro amor he matado yo
y me dirás asesino
cuándo nuestro amor he matado yo
cuándo nuestro amor
The song "Asesino" by Emmanuel Horvilleur is a melancholic and reflective piece that seems to address a lover who feels betrayed and hurt. As the lyrics go, the lover waits for the night to turn into day just to witness the sunset, but the sun does not show up. The singer then directly talks to the lover and reassures her that he didn't intend to kill their love. He asks her not to reproach or paint his walls as it will be a fruitless effort since the love has already faded away, and he can't bring it back. The song concludes with the singer addressing the lover once again, asking if he has killed their love and if she considers him a murderer.
The lyrics' tone throughout the song is remorseful and accepting of the fact that things have changed, and there's nothing much he can do to alter the circumstances. The lyrics capture how sometimes when love fades away, it is difficult to revive or rekindle the feelings as the damage has already been done. Despite the solemn and melancholic tone of the song, "Asesino" is a beautiful piece, and Emmanuel's voice carries raw emotions and the heartbreak perfectly, making it relatable to anyone who has gone through a similar situation.
