Lo Que Yo Quiero
La Musicalite Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
tenia una semana antes de dcirte adiós,
Y por mucho que yo quiera estar sin tí,
es como clavarme un tenedor.
Podía elegir el irme de tí o no.
Podía elegir tu pelo otra vez.
Pero si decido ser, todo tuyo otra vez.
Me siento a morir!
Y el tormento de alejarme es un horror.
El reloj no se ha parado y toca ya.
El momento en el que tengo que partir.
(Coro:)
Lo que yo quiero es que vengas ya.
Hacerlo en la playa hasta no poder más.
De juerga sin que nadie pida rendición,
mirarme en tus ojos y ver como soy.
Y lo cierto es que eres un amor,
el único equipaje que deberas quiero.
Tengo que elegir, distancia nunca ha habido,
tu cuerpo es lo he sido.
Tenerte aquí, tenerte aquí, tenerte junto a mí.
Me quedan unas horas antes de salir,
me queda una hora y luego y luego adiós.
Y por mucho que ahora intente sobrevivir,
tengo miedo, mira, de un maldito avion.
Nooo! lo sabotearé, rezaré para que llueva un montón.
No, cualquier cosa que me deje junto a tí,
i que nunca más nos vuelva a separar
(Coro)

The lyrics of La Musicalite's "Lo Que Yo Quiero" convey the emotions of someone who is about to leave their loved one for a week-long trip to Tenerife. The singer is torn between their desire to be with their significant other and their obligation to go on the trip. The opening lines express the urgency of their situation, and the use of the phrase "es como clavarme un tenedor" - which means "it's like sticking a fork in me" - adds a sharp sense of pain to the sentiment.
The singer reflects on their ability to choose whether to stay with their partner or leave for Tenerife. In the second verse, they speculate that if they were to choose to stay, they would be "todo tuyo otra vez," which means "all yours again." However, they acknowledge that decision would be a way of avoiding the truth of their separation, implying that it is easier to ignore an impending breakup than confront it head-on.
As the departure time approaches, the singer becomes increasingly emotional. They express their longing to spend time with their lover, their fear of traveling by plane, and their desire to sabotage the trip so they can stay with them. In the end, the chorus sums up their desire to have their lover join them on the trip, to have fun without any worries or obstacles, and to simply be together.
