Libre Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ese lunar que quedaba abajo de tu boca
me guiaba a la sonrisa más linda que vi.
Esa boca disparaba frases y palabras
que daban vuelta la cabeza de ese pobre infeliz.

Tantas historias contadas,
tantos mambos de reviente
si cambiamos las delicadezas por vasos sin fin.

Solo mira mis ojos y decime que
ves unos ojos sinceros
porque no puedo yo seguir así

Yo no entiendo qué paso,
de repente solo abrazo al viento.
Yo no entiendo qué te paso...

No necesito tu amor el sábado a la noche
si hay unos ojos que miran fijo hoy.
Descartas el amor del insólito proceso
de dejar de pensar en vos.

Ya no querés más canciones,
solo la absurda libertad de hoy.

Overall Meaning

These lyrics depict a story of a romantic relationship that has gone awry. The singer refers to a mark or beauty spot beneath their partner's mouth that guided them to the most beautiful smile they had ever seen. However, that same mouth would utter words and phrases that would completely overwhelm and disorient the singer, leaving them feeling like a poor, unfortunate person.

The lyrics hint at the numerous stories and wild adventures the couple shared, but also imply a transition from tender moments to endless drinking and indulgence. The singer expresses a desire for their partner to just look into their eyes and acknowledge the sincerity behind them because they cannot continue on in this confusing state.

The next stanza reveals the singer's confusion and sense of loss. They do not understand what has happened, as suddenly they find themselves embracing emptiness and loneliness. They question what has changed in their partner, unable to comprehend the shifts in their behavior.

The final lines suggest a shift in the singer's perspective and state of mind. They assert that they do not need their partner's love on a Saturday night if there are other eyes gazing at them with intensity in the present moment. They suggest that their partner has discarded the love shared between them, preferring the absurd freedom of the present instead.
