Gossos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I desitjo que aquesta nit avorrida es transformi.
Tinc la clau, però encara no he trobat el pany.
Que es va fent tard, però avui no vull tornar-me a adormir,
Igual que ahir.
Començarem de nou.
Que hi ha sortides que no van enlloc.
Que no em surten les paraules, si tan sols mirant-te et pogués explicar.
Que ho va veure a dins la bola,
Que jo el que he vist ho he tocat
I el que toco no s'esborra.
Sento que amb tu jo puc fer-ho tot,
Els teus somnis, els meus somnis.
Creu-me que amb tu jo sóc molt millor,
Quan em parles, es para el món.
Nota l'escalfor dels teus ulls mirant el món
Set mil milions de noms
Set mil milions de cors
Set mil milions de flors
L'infinit i tu i jo.
Sento que amb tu jo puc fer-ho tot,
Els teus somnis, els meus somnis.
Creu-me que amb tu jo sóc molt millor,
Quan em parles, es para el món.
The lyrics to Gossos's song "Set Mil Milions" convey the feeling of waiting for something for a long time and hoping that tonight will be the night where things change. The singer has the key to unlock something, but hasn't found the lock yet. Despite the lateness of the hour, they don't want to go back to sleep and miss out on the opportunity in front of them. The chorus speaks to the power of human connection and the infinite possibilities that exist within it, with the singer feeling that they can achieve anything with their partner by their side.
The verses of the song explore the theme of starting anew and the potential of the present moment. The singer acknowledges that some paths lead nowhere, but still holds onto hope for a different outcome this time around. They express a desire to communicate their feelings to their partner, but words fail them. However, the song emphasizes the importance of physical touch and the sense of grounding that comes from being able to touch and feel something tangible. The singer believes that with their partner by their side, they can achieve their dreams and become better versions of themselves.
Overall, the song speaks to the transformative power of human connection and the hope that comes from feeling like anything is possible when you have that connection.

No sóc un il·luminat, no,
I'm not an enlightened one, no
Que ho va veure a dins la bola,
Who saw it inside the crystal ball
Que jo el que he vist ho he tocat

Sento que amb tu jo puc fer-ho tot,
I feel like I can do anything with you
