Esteman Ft. Monsieur Periné Juan Pablo Vega y La Esteband Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why when all was gray
It turned suddenly purple
When I saw you there
I guess it was your hair

Then I saw your smile
You looked directly into my eyes
I lost my head, my mind

'Cause baby you touched me there
'Cause baby I touched you here
Now baby I know you love
When I kiss you near your ear

And maybe we fought one day
Or maybe we drew some tears
But baby it feels so well
'Cause it is true and sincere

True love
It's nothing else but true love
You're my one and only
True love

Now I know soon you'll leave
It's difficult, but also an amazing deal
For you to live my dear

And we'll be miles away
Things could be tough but I will always be right there
No matter what it takes

Cause baby you touched me there
Cause baby I touched you here
Now baby I know you love
When I kiss you near your ear

And maybe we fought one day
Or maybe we drew some tears
But baby it feels so well
'Cause it is true and sincere

True love
It's nothing else but true love
You're my one and only true love
True love
It's nothing else but true love
You're my one and only true love

I love you, and I will always love you
If we are miles away
I will always love you
I love you, and I will always love you
No matter what they say
I will always love you

I love you, and I will always love you




If we are miles away
I will always love

Line by Line Meaning

Why when all was gray
Despite feeling down and gloomy, something changed when I saw you


It turned suddenly purple
My whole world was transformed into something vibrant and colorful


When I saw you there
The sight of you caught my attention


I guess it was your hair
Your hair had a captivating effect on me


Then I saw your smile
Your smile was warm and inviting


You looked directly into my eyes
Your gaze held my attention and made me feel seen


I lost my head, my mind
I became so drawn to you that I couldn't think straight


'Cause baby you touched me there
Our physical connection is important to me


'Cause baby I touched you here
Our physical connection goes both ways


Now baby I know you love
I can tell that you have strong feelings for me


When I kiss you near your ear
There are specific ways I like to show you affection


And maybe we fought one day
We might disagree or argue, but it doesn't overshadow our love


Or maybe we drew some tears
Emotions can run high, but we still have each other's backs


But baby it feels so well
Despite any rough patches, being with you feels good


'Cause it is true and sincere
Our love is genuine and honest


True love
Our love is authentic and pure


It's nothing else but true love
There aren't any other factors influencing our relationship


You're my one and only true love
You're the only one for me


Now I know soon you'll leave
Our time together is limited


It's difficult, but also an amazing deal
Parting is tough, but having loved is worth it


For you to live my dear
I want you to experience everything life has to offer


And we'll be miles away
The distance between us will be great


Things could be tough but I will always be right there
I'll support you even from afar


No matter what it takes
I'm committed to making it work


I love you, and I will always love you
My love for you is constant


If we are miles away
Even if we're physically separated


No matter what they say
Regardless of other people's opinions

Letra
Why when all was gray
It turned suddenly purple when I saw you there
I guess it was your hair
Then I saw your smile
You looked directly into my eyes
I lost my head, my mind
'Cause, baby, you touched me there
'Cause, baby, I touched you here
Now, baby, I know you love
When I kiss you near your ear
And maybe we fought one day
Or maybe we threw some tears
But, baby, it feels so well
'Cause it is true and sincere
True love
It's nothing else but true love
You're my one and only true love
Now, I know soon you'll leave
It's difficult, but also an amazing deal
For you to live, my dear
And we'll be miles away
Things could be tough but I will always be right there
No matter what it takes
'Cause, baby, you touched me there
'Cause, baby, I touched you here
Now, baby, I know you love
When I kiss you near your ear
And maybe we fought one day
Or maybe we threw some tears
But, baby, it feels so well
'Cause it is true and sincere
True love
It's nothing else but true love
You're my one and only true love
I love you, and I will always love you
If we are miles away
I will always love you
I love you, and I will always love you
No matter what they say
I will always love you
I love you, and I will always love you
If we are miles away
I will always love
