perfidia
Luis Miguel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nadie comprende lo que sufro yo
Canto pues ya no puedo sollozar
Solo temblando de ansiedad estoy
Todos me miran y se van

Mujer
Si puedes tú con Dios hablar
Pregúntale si yo alguna vez
Te he dejado de adorar

Y al mar
Espejo de mi corazón
Las veces que me ha visto llorar
La perfidia de tú amor

Te he buscado dondequiera que yo voy
Y no te puedo hallar
Para que quiero otros besos
Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar

Y tú
Quién sabe por dónde andarás
Quién sabe qué aventuras tendrás
Que lejos estás de mí

Te he buscado dondequiera que yo voy
Y no te puedo hallar
Para qué quiero otros besos
Si tus labios no me quieren ya besar

Y tú
Quién sabe por dónde andarás
Quién sabe qué aventuras tendrás
Que lejos estás de mí





De mí
De mi

Overall Meaning

The song Perfidia by Luis Miguel is a heartbreaking ballad of unrequited love and betrayal. The singer of the song is speaking of his desperation and heartache caused by the perfidy of a woman he loved deeply. He sings about his inner turmoil that nobody can understand, and how he can no longer cry, only sing. He is left alone with his anxiety, and as he looks around, everyone sees him trembling in fear and desperation.


The songwriter then appeals to the woman that he loved, asking her to speak to God on his behalf and inquire about whether he ever stopped loving her. He then looks inward to the sea, a reflection of his heart, and remembers how many times he has cried over her and her betrayal.


The song continues to explore his futile search for her, even though she seems to have moved on. He has searched high and low, but he cannot find her. He is left with a sense of despair, as he realizes he cannot find any other woman to kiss him, as no other lips compare to hers. The song ends with the realization that the woman he loved is gone, and he is left alone in his sadness.
