Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Porque voy a enloquecer
Ella se irá para siempre
Cuando amanezca otra vez
No más nos queda esta noche
Para vivir nuestro amor
Y su tic tac me recuerda
Reloj detén tu camino
Porque mi vida se apaga
Ella es la estrella que alumbra mi ser
Yo sin su amor no soy nada.
Detén el tiempo en tus manos
Haz de esta noche perpetua
Para que nunca se vaya de mí
Para que nunca amanezca.
Detén el tiempo en tus manos
Haz de esta noche perpetua
Para que nunca se vaya de mí
Para que nunca amanezca.
Reloj detén tu camino
Porque mi vida se apaga
Ella es la estrella que alumbra mi ser
Yo sin su amor no soy nada.
The lyrics to La Original Banda Limon De Salvador Lizarraga's song "El Reloj" tells a story of a person pleading with time to stop moving forward because their loved one will be leaving them soon. The singer is in agony and can hear the ticking of the clock, which constantly reminds them of their pain. With every tick of the clock, they become more and more hopeless, begging time to stop so that they can hold onto their love forever.
Throughout the song, the singer addresses the clock directly and implores it to halt its ticking. They don't want this night to end because they know that once morning comes, their love will be gone forever. They ask the clock to help them freeze this moment in time so that they never have to experience the heartbreak of their love leaving them behind.
The song's lyrics are an emotional and desperate plea to time for one more moment with a loved one. The heart-breaking message of the song resonated with many listeners, which made it a massive hit in Latin America.
