Y Soñará
Jose Luis Perales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hoy llegará tarde a la oficina
Contará que el tráfico es fatal
Y se apuntará otra mentira
Colgará despacio su chaqueta
Volverá de nuevo a la rutina
Tomará en la máquina un café
Y soñará
Con una de catorce que le toque un día y que le salvará
Con una de catorce se arreglará
Y soñará
Con una de catorce que le toque un día y que le salvará
Con una de catorce se arreglará
Pero entre tanto llega la fortuna
Tiene que ir al ritmo que le toca
Y vendrá el verano y Navidad
Y las horas fijas y las otras
Y su calendario manoseado
Cambiará por otro cualquier día
Y de su cabeza brotarán
Esas canas blancas atrevidas
Y aún soñará
Con una de catorce que le toque un día y que le salvará
Con una de catorce se arreglará
Y aún soñará
Con una de catorce que le toque un día y que le salvará
Con una de catorce se arreglará
Y aún soñará
Con una de catorce que le toque un día y que le salvará
Con una de catorce se arreglará
The song "Y Soñará" by José Luis Perales is a poignant portrayal of the daily life of a man who is stuck in a monotonous routine. The opening lines of the song depict the man's daily struggle with the mundanity of his life. He walks worriedly on the street, knowing that he will be late for work. When he arrives at the office, he tells a lie about the traffic being too bad, thus setting the tone for the rest of his day. He hangs his coat on the rack and goes back to his everyday routine. He drinks a cup of coffee and consumes another day.
Despite living a monotonous life, the man dreams about a miracle that will save him. He dreams of meeting a woman who will change his life, a woman who he imagines will be 14 years old. He hopes that this woman will be his savior and that she could change his life. He continues to dream about her, even when all hope seems to be lost. The man knows that he may never meet his savior, but he still holds onto the hope that one day she will become a reality.
In conclusion, "Y Soñará" is a song that captures the challenges of living a mundane life. The song highlights the need for hope and the power of dreaming. It shows how, even in the darkest moments, hope and dreams can keep a person going.
