Perdimos pronto la dirección
representando nuestra función
fuimos actores detrás del telón
Libros de historias a tu alrededor
cambian pasado por invención
diosas de piedra de un tiempo mejor

Y tú siempre estás tú
la vida y tú y entre los dos
hacemos en un instante
castillos en el aire
Y tú siempre estás tú
la vida y tú y entre los dos
hacemos en un instante
castillos en el aire

Hay un mensaje por descifrar
entre los besos que tú me das
y un aguacero en tu bola de cristal

Y tú siempre estás tú
la vida y tú y entre los dos
hacemos en un instante
castillos en el aire
Y tú siempre estás tú
la vida y tú y entre los dos
hacemos en un instante
castillos en el aire

A tu lado estoy
un soldado soy
en un extraño jardín
siempre junto a ti
siempre junto a ti.

Y en el torreón tengo el corazón
guardo tu mundo infantil
siempre junto a ti
siempre junto a ti

Y tú siempre estás tú
la vida y tú y entre los dos
hacemos en un instante
castillos en el aire
Y tú siempre estás tú
la vida y tú y entre los dos




hacemos en un instante
castillos en el aire

Overall Meaning

The Spanish ballad "Castillos En El Aire," performed by La Frontera, speaks about the ups and downs of a relationship. The opening lines of the song are about losing direction and purpose in life. The singer of the song talks about how they, along with their lover, have been playing a role in the background of a bigger picture. They feel like history is changing, and they're not sure how to keep up. However, in the midst of all the confusion, the singer takes solace in the fact that they have their partner, and together they are building castles in the air. The duo shares each other's company and, through their love, find a moment of happiness.


There is another layer to their relationship. The singer feels like there is a message they are not deciphering from their partner's kisses. Additionally, their partner's crystal ball shows an upcoming storm. Perhaps, the storm is indicative of the challenges they will face in the future, and the singer believes that their love will help them overcome any difficulty. The song ends with the singer proclaiming that they are always by their partner's side, through thick and thin. The final lines of the song are about how the singer is safeguarding their partner's inner child in their heart, and together they create hope.
