El O Yo
Leonardo Paniagua Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
si no quieres ser mi amor por favor, aste a un lado de mi camino
Sigue andando tú destino no busque por favor,
sigue andando tú destino no busque por favor...
Si ya tienes un amor por favor,
que pretendes de mi vida, quiero que decidas hoy
El o Yo
de los dos, y antes dios que te decidas a quien quieres de los dos
Solo tú
En tu conciencia encontrarás la solución quizás el puede el que
nunca pude yo no solamente te entregué mi corazón y está canción
Y si dios quiere que sea yo, eligió los dos,
no tengas miedo en darme todo tú calor, dame tu vida dame tu amor
Si ya tienes un amor por favor que
pretendes de mi vida, quiero que decida hoy
El o Yo
Ya no quiero más mentiras y antes dios que te decidas a quien quiere
de los dos y antes dios que te decidas a quien quieres de los dos...
Leonardo Paniagua's song "El O Yo" is a plea from a man to a woman to choose between him and another man. The lyrics describe the conflicting emotions and frustrations that come with being in love with someone who is not committed to a relationship. The singer asks the woman to stop giving him false hope by looking at him with a certain gaze if she doesn't want to be with him. He implores her to make a decision between him and her other lover, and urges her to follow her own path if she cannot choose.
The singer's feelings of confusion and desperation are evident in the repetition of his refrain "El o yo" (Him or me). He is tired of being strung along and wants the woman to be honest with him so that he can move on with his life. At the same time, he expresses his love for her, saying that if she chooses him, he will give her all his love and dedicate his life to her. Ultimately, the decision is hers to make, and he knows that only she can find the solution, perhaps with the help of divine guidance.
