Porque vas a venir
Martirio Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
qué rápido se me ha clavado qué dentro todo este dolor.
Es poco lo que te conozco y ya pongo todo el juego a tu favor
no tengo miedo de apostarte, perderte sí me da pavor.
No me queda más refugio que la fantasía
no me queda más que hacer, que hacerte una poesía.
Porque te vi venir y no dudé te vi llegar, y te abracé y puse toda mi pasión para que te quedaras
y luego te besé y me arriesgué con la verdad te acaricié y al fin abrí mi corazón para que tú pasaras.
Mi amor te di sin condición para que te quedaras.
Ahora esperaré algunos días para ver si lo que te digo es suficiente
no sabes qué terror se siente la espera cada madrugada.
si tú ya no quisieras volver se perdería el sentido del amor por siempre
no entendería ya este mundo me alejaría de la gente.
No me queda más refugio, que la fantasía no me queda más que hacer que hacerte una poesía.
Porque te vi venir y no dudé te vi llegar y te abracé y puse toda mi pasión para que te quedaras
y luego te besé y me arriesgué con la verdad te acaricié y al fin abrí mi corazón para que tú pasaras.
ohhhhh Mi amor te di sin condicion para que te quedaras.
ohhhhh.
The lyrics of Martirio's song "Porque vas a venir" describe the fear and vulnerability that comes with falling in love. The singer expresses their fear of losing the love that they haven't even acquired yet, and how quickly this deep pain has already settled inside them. Even though they don't know much about the person they're talking to, they want to give everything for the relationship, except for the fear of losing that person. They have no other refuge than fantasy and poetry, which highlights the immense love and passion they feel towards that person.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "porque te vi venir" which means "because I saw you coming," emphasizing the singer's belief that this love has been predetermined or inevitable. There's no doubt in the singer's mind that they want to hold onto this person and give them all their love. They took a risk, showed vulnerability, opened up and shared their most profound feelings, and all without any conditions or limitations. The song describes how the singer is waiting anxiously for the other person's response and how a lack of reciprocity would mean the end of everything.
Overall, the song reflects on the universal feeling of falling in love, how it can be thrilling and frightening at the same time, and how it can push individuals to be their most vulnerable self.
