Te Amo Tanto
Javiera & Los Imposibles Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
La cintura al revez
Pensar que lo amé y no lo supe entender ehehe...
Con las manos heladas
La cabeza inflamada
Con los labios morados se caía la piel
Te lo cuento de nuevo y no sabras lo que fue
Tus ojos eran sol, cuando no conocía el calooor
Te amo tanto oohh
Te amo tanto ooh, aunque no me mires
Te amo tanto oohh, aun que no respires
Te amo tanto uuoohh
Lo encontré sin sus pies
La cintura al revez
Pensar que lo amé y no lo supe entender
Te lo cuento de nuevo y no sabaras lo que fue
Y tu cara cambio, tu color se esfumo
Tus ojos eran sol, cuando no conocia el calor
Me puedo quedar con tu alma, ojala'
Con tu cuerpo en el mar, es dificil de amarte
Me puedo quedar con tu alma, ojala'
Con tu cuerpo en el mar, es dificil de amarte
Te amo tanto ooh, no hay diferencia entre risa y llanto
Te amo tanto ooh, no hay diferencia entre risa y llaaantooouuooo
Larilaaaaaaa...
The lyrics of "Te Amo Tanto" by Javiera & Los Imposibles contain a lot of imagery and figurative language, making it somewhat difficult to discern their meaning at first. The first verse talks about the singer feeling as though they are missing something essential, represented by the idea of being without their "feet" and having their "waist upside down." This might suggest a feeling of disorientation or being lost, as though they are not fully in control of their own life or situation.
The second verse goes into more physical detail, describing sensations like cold hands or inflamed head, and again referencing the idea of a body falling apart or decaying ("lips turning purple, skin falling off"). The refrain, which repeats throughout the song, is a declaration of love. However, it is important to note that the lyrics specify that the love being expressed is not necessarily reciprocated - the singer loves this person deeply, even if they do not return those feelings.
The final section of the song is somewhat ambiguous, suggesting that the singer could potentially "keep" the person they love in different ways. They could remain with them as a soul, or allow their body to sink into the ocean. However, the repetition of the refrain suggests that regardless of how this love is expressed, it remains a constant and all-consuming feeling.
