Los Bunkers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
por mas que se busque,
por mas que se esconda
tu duermes conmigo todas las noches
te quedas callada sin ningun reproche
por eso te quiero
por eso te adoro
eres en mi vida todo mi tesoro
A veces regreso borracho de angustia te lleno de besos y caricias
mustias pero estas dormida no sientes caricias
te abrazo a mi pecho
me duermo contigo
mas luego despierto
tu no estas conmigo
solo esta mi almohada
A veces te miro callada y ausente
y sufro en silencio como tanta gente
quisiera gritarte que vuelvas conmigo
que si aun estoy vivo solo es para amarte
pero todo pasa y a los sufrimientos
como a las palabras se las lleva el viento
Por eso regreso borracho de angustia
te lleno de besos y caricias mustias
pero estas dormida
no sientes caricias
te abrazo a mi pecho
me duermo contigo
mas luego despierto
tu no estas conmigo
solo esta mi almohada
The lyrics to "Almohada" by Los Bunkers describe a deep and unique love that the singer shares with a significant other. The first verse proclaims this love as one that cannot be duplicated or replaced. The singer speaks to the fact that this person sleeps next to them every night and remains silent, without any reproach. This silence and understanding is something that the singer treasures deeply, and it is what makes this person their "tesoro" or treasure.
However, the second verse hints at underlying tension and struggles within their relationship. The singer confesses to returning home drunk and filled with angst, yet still showering their partner with kisses and caresses, to which they are unresponsive, asleep and therefore disconnected. The chorus again emphasizes the significance of the singer’s partner, but at the end of the verse, they admit to waking up alone, with only the pillow to hold onto.
The final verse speaks to the singer's loneliness and suffering, which they keep inside because they are afraid to speak out. They wish to shout out to their partner to return to them and confess their longing for that person. However, they acknowledge the fleeting impermanence of life, and how suffering too shall pass, and that time will take away their pain.
Overall, the lyrics to "Almohada" speaks to the complexities of love and relationships. It highlights how love can be both profound and all-encompassing, yet simultaneously complicated and tumultuous.
