Parabrisas
Los Rancheros Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ayer le dije que estaba mal
Y ni siquiera me llamo,
Sera que no le importo mas,
Sera que nunca le importo.

Ayer le dije que me iba a ir
Y ni siquiera pregunto,
Sera que no me quiere ver,
Sera que lejos es mejor.

Ayer quedo toda mi vida a la deriva,
Como un auto en la tormenta
Que rompio su parabrisas.
Y ensima los carteles
Que anunciaban que esta cerca el paraiso..
Paraiso perdido.

Y si me vuelves a llamar
Te dire que estoy muy bien,
Voy caminando hacia el lugar
Donde siempre quise estar.

Y alli me espera una mujer,
Y aunque no sea verdad
He dejado de fumar
Pero no me llames mas.

Ayer quedo toda mi vida a la deriva,
Como un auto en la tormenta
Que rompio su parabrisas.
Y ensima los carteles.. carteles.

Ya volvera a extrañar mis besos,
Y mi incansable comprension.




Dias de amor mirando el techo,
Y un sueño que ha quedado atrapado entre los dos.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics above are from the song Parabrisas by Los Rancheros. The song talks about a failed relationship, where the singer is tired of not being valued and decides to leave. When he tells his partner about his decision, they don't seem to care, and he ends up feeling lost and abandoned. The lyrics use a powerful metaphor to represent this feeling: a car in a storm breaking its windshield. The singer feels like his life is adrift, and he can't see where he's headed.


In the second stanza, the singer decides to move on with his life, despite the pain he feels. He tells his ex-partner that he's doing well and that he's headed towards the place he always wanted to be. He mentions a woman who's waiting for him, even though he admits that it might not be entirely true. He also claims to have stopped smoking, implying that he's trying to improve his life.


Throughout the song, the singer is torn between the pain of the past and the hope for the future. He's aware that his ex might miss him, but he's also determined to move on. In the end, he evokes the memory of their love, the days they spent together, and a dream that's now trapped between them.
