Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Cada fiesta que no para
Cada vez que en tu mirada
La vida, la vida se nos pasa
No soy el que manda flores
Prefiero que me controles
No soy el que manda flores, no soy el tipo de mil colores
Pero, oye, oye, oye
Oye, oye, oye
Que vengo a darte y a entregarte
Oye, oye, oye
yo soy tu soñador yo soy tu ganador
Oye, oye, oye
Que vengo a darte y a entregarte mi vida
Mientras que este cuento me gana
Mientras que la vida se pasa
Mientras que mi alma y tu alma
Se van juntando en la calma
No soy el que manda flores
Prefiero que me controles
No soy el que manda flores, no soy el tipo de mil colores
Pero, oye, oye, oye
Yo soy tu soñador, yo soy tu ganador
Oye, oye, oye
Que vengo a darte y a entregarte mi vida
Oye, oye, oye
Yo soy tu soñador, yo soy tu ganador
Oye, oye, oye
Que vengo a darte y a entregarte
Oye, oye, oye
Yo soy tu soñador, yo soy tu ganador
Oye, oye, oye
Que vengo a darte y a entregarte mi vida
Oye, oye, oye
The song "Oye" by Mario Duarte is a romantic ballad about a man who may not be the most romantic or flashy type, but he is devoted to his love and willing to do what it takes to make her happy. The lyrics express how he wants to be guided by his partner and how their love story is unfolding. The first stanza talks about how the night ends, and the parties come to an end. It also states how time flies by in a moment when looking into his lover's eyes. In the next stanza, he talks about how he is not the type of man who buys flowers, but he wants to be a man who is controlled by his lover. He emphasizes that his love is constant, even though he is not the flashy type, he is a dreamer and a winner, and he wants to dedicate his life to her.
The chorus repeats the same phrase "Oye, Oye, Oye," which can be translated to "Listen, listen, listen." The repetition emphasizes how he wants his lover to hear him out and believe in his love. The lyrics make the listener feel as though the singer is pouring his heart out to his lover.
