La nit s'acaba
Gossos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I no vull passarmela dormin...
Drogat amb les teves promeses.
Allà on els somnis es compleixen...
Però el temps es para quan t'acostes a mi!
I a tu t'agrada quan em veus així!
I és que em sembla que avui el món s'acaba!
Uuuuh!!!
Uh¡uh!!!
Hagués estat nolt bé...
Fer vacacneces i viatjar per un estiu etern...
Però el temps es para quan t'acostes a mi!!
És una cosa que no puc decidir!!
LA NIT S'ACABA!!!!!!!
Posa't aquell vestit que tan m'agrada!!
Aquell amb el que et vaig descubrir!!
Seràs el centre de totes les miirades!!
I junts podrèm cridar...
Uuuuuuuuuh!!
La nit s'acaba!!
Uuuuuuuuuh!!
I amb ella la nostre cançó!
UuuuuuuuuH! La nit s'acaba!!
Ser que em deixaràs,
Amb un pam de nas...
Fet malbé com un llibre sota la pluja.
Xinu xanu tornaré,
Diracció al no res...
Potser faré un café si trobu un lloc obert.
Uuuuuuuuuh!!
La nit s'acaba!!
Uuuuuuuuuh!!
I amb ella la nostre cançó!!
Uuuuuuuuuh!!
Potser que avui s'acabi el món.
The song La nit s'acaba by Gossos is a rock ballad about the end of the night and the uncertainty of the future. The singer declares that they only have one night left and they don't want to spend it sleeping. They are intoxicated with the promises of the person they are with and hopeful that their dreams will come true. However, time seems to stand still when the other person approaches, and the singer can't help but be drawn to their presence, even though they feel like the world might end after this night.
The chorus chants "La nit s'acaba!" which translates to "The night is ending!" and is meant to signify that time is finite and fleeting. The singer regrets not being able to have an eternal summer vacation with this special person and feels helpless in their grip. They are resigned to the fact that they can't decide how they feel about them and the situation, and must live in the moment.
