Cayendo
La Castañeda Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si al fin y al cabo se llama amor?
Caminamos sobre aceite
Cualquier momento y un resbalón
Y en lo que vamos cayendo
Lo siento por los dos
Lo siento por los dos
Tus formas, besos de antes
Sueños fugaces, relaciones errantes
Amor sin convicción
Amor sin convicción
Caminamos sobre aceite
Cualquier momento y un resbalón
Y en lo que vamos cayendo
Lo siento por los dos
Lo siento por los dos
Lo siento por los dos
Ooohhhh…oooohh
Por los dos
Lo siento… lo siento por los dos
Lo siento por los dos
The lyrics to "Cayendo" by La Castañeda describe a relationship that is on unstable ground. The singer questions why love has to be so difficult when it should be simple. They describe the feeling of walking on oil, where at any moment a slip could lead to falling down. As they both fall, the singer apologizes for the situation, feeling regret for both of them.
The singer admits that they don't have the ability to understand their partner's actions, including past kisses, fleeting dreams, and uncommitted relationships. It seems that the love between the pair lacks conviction or depth; they are simply going through the motions. The repeated chorus emphasizes the sense of falling and the shared regret that comes with it.
Overall, the lyrics suggest a relationship that is failing due to a lack of understanding, commitment, and stability. The use of the metaphor of walking on oil and falling adds to the sense of danger and uncertainty. The song speaks to the difficult and messy realities of love, where things don't always go according to plan.
