Marta
Enrique Iglesias Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Son las 6 de la mañana
Ya sale el sol
Su ropa tirada por todo el suelo
Hay olor a noche
Hay olor a fuego
Y ella sonríe diciéndome
Aunque una locura lahe pasado bíen
Me mira a los hojos y me dice adiós
Como si lo de anoche nunca sucedió
Sabes Marta
Yo daría media vida y algo más
Solamente por estar contigo
Oye Marta
No te salgas de mi vida por favor
Déjame aunque sea ser
Tu amigo
Marta me besa por última vez
Su boca aún me sabe dulce como miel
Le pido que me jure que me llamará
Su forma de reír quiere decir quizás
Sus piernas desafían el amanecer
Ella no cabe duda si lo sabe hacer
Sabes Marta
Yo daría media vida y algo más
Solamente por estar contigo
Oye Marta
No te salgas de mi vida por favor
Déjame aunque sea ser
Tu amigo
No no no
Marta me besa por última vez
Su boca aún me sabe dulce como miel
Sabes Marta
Yo daría media vida y algo más
Solamente por estar contigo
Oye Marta
No te salgas de mi vida por favor
Déjame aunque sea ser
Tu amigo
The song "Marta" by Enrique Iglesias tells the story of a passionate yet complicated love affair between the singer and a woman named Marta. The song begins with Marta getting dressed in the singer's room early in the morning after spending the night with him. The remnants of their night together, such as her clothes scattered on the floor and the smell of night and fire, are present in the room. However, Marta smiles and tells the singer that even though their time together was crazy, she had a good time.
The chorus of the song expresses the singer's desire to be with Marta, even if it means being just friends. He would give up half of his life and more just to be with her. Marta kisses the singer one last time before leaving, and he begs her to promise to call him. Her laughter hints that she might call, but she is not sure. Despite the uncertainty, the singer still feels deeply for Marta and would do anything to have her in his life.
Overall, "Marta" is a tender and emotional song about a complicated love affair. The lyrics explore the multi-faceted emotions that come with being in love with someone, yet not necessarily being able to be with them in the way you want. The passion and tenderness of the relationship are well-captured by the lyrics and make for a moving listening experience.
