Lovely Luna Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Usted que hiela mi sangre
Cuando olvida tocarme,
De agua salada mi cara
Se inunda cuando no me mira.

Usted con pocas palabras
Me reveló sabiamente
Que el amor tiene ojos grandes

Y la amistad grandes pruebas.

Era bastante difícil
Darle sentido a mis pasos.
Hacer camino del aire,
Soplar las velas del tiempo.

El afilador con su flauta
Nos despertó muy temprano,
Haré café mientras tanto,
Usted encienda el planeta.
Con sólo abrir los ojos,
Iluminándolo todo,
Desde la estepa hasta el polo,
Iluminando el planeta.

Era bastante difícil
Darle sentido a mis pasos.

Hacer camino del aire,
Soplar las velas del tiempo

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Usted" by Lovely Luna speak of the complex emotions and multifaceted relationships that exist between two people. The singer addresses the person they are singing to as "usted" - a formal term in Spanish - and describes the effect they have on their life. The song talks about the pain of feeling ignored by someone who once used to touch them deeply, and how their face is flooded with tears when this person doesn't look at them. However, the lyrics also describe how this same person has shown the singer the true nature of love and friendship. Through them, the singer has learned that love has a way of giving us larger than life experiences, while friendship is tested by great trials.

The lyrics also touch upon the theme of finding one's way in the world. The singer talks about feeling lost and not knowing where to go, but finding the strength to take steps towards the future, no matter how difficult it may be. The image of the "afilador con su flauta" (the knife grinder and his flute) suggests that life is both beautiful and difficult, and that we need to find ways to stay centered amidst its many twists and turns. As the two protagonists of the song get ready for the day ahead, the singer encourages them to open their eyes and light up the world - something that can be interpreted as a call for action to face the challenges of life with renewed vigor and purpose.
