Buena Vida
Eros Ramazzotti Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lo has decidido
Vuelves al punto de partida en tu camino
Hay que cambiar, es tu deseo
Regresar allí
Donde puedas ver el mar, al menos
Esta ciudad
Ya no parece la que habìas conocido
Falta calidad
Esa que te da la buena vida
Buena vida es
Justo el saludo que yo te doy
Entonces
Buena vida es
Lo que te falta
Lo sé muy bien
Buena vida
Esperemos siempre
Te entiendo bien
Pero lo siento
Nunca pasaron por aquí los buenos tiempos
Tú necesitas aire nuevo
why serenidad
Para dar a luz en otro cielo
Buena vida es
Justo el saludo que yo te doy
Entonces
Buena vida es
Lo que te falta
Lo sé muy bien
Buena vida
Esperemos que sí
why buena vida
Te digo a ti
Porque lo esperas
Te hare falta
why yo lo sé
why yo lo sé
Entonces
Buena vida es
Justo el saludo que yo te doy
Buena vida a la gente
Para aquél que mira al frente
why a ti.
The lyrics to Eros Ramazzotti's song Buena Vida tell the story of a person who has decided to leave where they are and return to where they started. The person is looking for a change and wants to go back to a place where they can see the sea and experience a better quality of life. The singer acknowledges that the city no longer seems like it used to be and this person needs a breath of fresh air and serenity to create a new life in a different place.
The chorus of the song delivers a greeting of "Buena Vida", which translates to "Good Life". The singer acknowledges that this person needs a good life, and recognizes that this is the one thing missing in their life. He wishes them well, hoping that they achieve a good life wherever they go. The singer says "Buena vida" again, explaining it's the greeting he gives the person, signifying that the person's search for a good life should always be ongoing.
Overall, the song is an acknowledgement of the changes people go through in life and how life can change drastically, making people want to go back to their roots, start anew, and chase a good life.
