Joe Veras Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
que me quema por dentro
no encuentra ver sin ti;
abrazame sin miedo
atame a tus cabellos,
y no me dejes nunca de querer así;
busco un algo en su mirada
una señal amiga
que me indique mi camino
una fuerza que me cueste
y me eleve sobre el ruido
sobre el ruido de este mundo
contigo soy yo
contigo sere
el dueño del mundo
en un abrazo
tu angel de sol
un santo de miel
que brille esperanza y calma
Todo lo bueno
tan bueno no es
el diablo no duerme
no duerme jamas
lo se...
me vieras.
el tiempo no vuelve
ni tiene final
y lo que fue
hay se quedo en otro lugar
otra realidad
contigo soy yo
contigo sere
el peso profundo de la muerte
el grito de Dios
un amanecer
el sueño que nunca
se detiene
contigo soy yo.
contigo sere.
guerrero implacable...
para siempre...
contigo soy yo...
contigo sere.
un navegante y
no es el naufrago de siempre
el grito de Dios
un amanecer
el sueño que nunca
se detiene
contigo soy yo.
contigo sere...
la luz que ilumine...
para siempre
The lyrics of Joe Veras's song No Vuelvo Contigo (I'm not coming back to you) express the intense love and passion the singer feels for his partner. He compares his love to a burning fire that consumes him from the inside, and he can't find any peace without her. The singer asks his partner to embrace him without fear and tie him up with her hair, so he never stops loving her. He seeks hope and relief in her eyes, looking for a friendly sign that guides him through life's challenges. He wants a force that elevates him above the noise of the world, and he finds it in her love.
The lyrics suggest that the singer has gone through tough times, faced the devil's temptations, and understands that not everything good is truly good. He acknowledges the transient nature of life and that time won't come back. The singer has let go of the past and accepted the reality that things change, and all he wants is to be with his partner forever. He imagines a future where he is the owner of the world, and his love for his partner is the centerpiece that gives him hope, peace, and a reason to live.
