Why?
Henri Josh FUNKyou2 Feat. Maria Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y aunque estas cerca
No te puedo beber
Me pierdo ante tu inmensidad
Pero eres aire
Que no puedo tocar
Agua fresca que a mí no
Me moja más
No moja más
Seremos agua y sed
Me muero por beber
El sudor de tu piel
De un nuevo amanecer
Donde sea yo junto contigo
Y no morir de sed
Tú eres el agua y yo la sed
Pero en tus olas
No me dejas ser pez
Dame una gota de tu ser
Vuelve a mirarme
Atrápame en tu red
Eres lluvia y humedad
Agua fresca que a mí no
Me moja más
No moja más
Seremos agua y sed
Me muero por beber
El sudor de tu piel
De un nuevo amanecer
Donde sea yo junto contigo
Y no morir de sed
Porque ser agua y sed
Eso no puede ser
The song "Why?" by Henri Josh & Funkyou2 Feat. Maria talks about the feeling of being thirsty for someone, but not being able to fully quench that thirst. The lyrics describe the metaphorical relationship between the singer and the subject of the song, where the subject is compared to water and the singer to thirst. Even though the subject is close by, the singer is unable to "drink" or be with them fully because of their unattainable nature. The subject is described as vast and immense, yet intangible like air, impossible to touch.
The chorus talks about the desire to be with the subject and drink from their essence or "the sweat of their skin" and not die of thirst. The subject is described as rain and humidity, refreshing and desirable, but also distant and unattainable.
Overall, the song seems to be about unrequited love or desire, where the subject is the unattainable object of the singer's affection. The lyrics are poetic and use vivid imagery to convey the emotions and feelings of the singer.

Nada mau... Nada mau, de facto. E prova o quão uma música pode beneficiar com uma voz que saiba finalmente cantar em língua inglesa. Kudos, brothas.
