LA VERDAD
Joe Crepúsculo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Vamos a otra parte, a tomar un pisco sour, para desayunar.
Luego cruzar el parque, no quiero asustarte, te voy a acompañar.
Dime la verdad, no quiero palabras huecas que digan te quiero la verdad, te quiero, dime la verdad.
Dime la verdad, no quiero palabras huecas que digan te quiero la verdad, te quiero, dime la verdad.
Toda la noche te envío mensajes, con corazones y animales, que dicen la verdad.
Tu pelo es de fuego, y tu sonrisa, un muñeco que habla sin parar.
Dime la verdad, no quiero palabras huecas que digan te quiero la verdad, te quiero, dime la verdad.
Dime la verdad, no quiero palabras huecas que digan te quiero la verdad, te quiero, dime la verdad.

Dime la verdad, no quiero palabras huecas que digan te quiero la verdad, te quiero, dime la verdad.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Joe Crepúsculo's song La Verdad speak about the struggle to find honesty and sincerity in our relationships. The song follows the singer and their companion as they go to a new place to have a drink and then walk through a park together. The singer then implores their companion to tell them the truth and not use hollow words like "te quiero" (I love you) if they don't truly mean it. Throughout the night, the singer has been sending messages that speak the truth, including compliments about their companion's fiery hair and talkative smile. In the end, the singer repeats their request for the truth and not empty words.

The song delivers a message that is relevant to many people's experiences with relationships. The desire for truth and sincerity in a "I love you" declaration is something that many people can relate to, as it can be difficult to trust someone and open yourself up to them in a relationship. Additionally, the lyrics express a sense of unease and uncertainty that often characterizes the early stages of a relationship, full of tentative gestures and the need for reassurance.
