Chicas De Colegio
Melocos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
soñando que tu estabas
dormido dentro
Hoy he dibujado en la ventana empañada una cara sonriendo
todo lo que tengo te lo daba
por tenerte aqui en mi almohada, por salir corriendo
pero te me escapas como el agua entre los dedo te me escapas, como un grito al vientooouuo
Quiero, quiero, quiero
que se pare el tiempo
quiero, quiero, quiero,
en este momento, oir tu voz
hablandome de los dias
felices que aun
no me diste y tendre eehhh.
Somos prisioneros y las jaulas
que encarcelan nuestros sueños
son las circunstancias.
Somos el camino que hay en medio entre el echo y el deseo
somos la distancia.
Todo lo que tengo te lo daba por tenerte como almohada,
por sentir tu aliento pero te me escapas como el agua entre los dedos te me escapas, como un crito al vientoouou.
The song "Chicas de Colegio" by Melocos is a story of unrequited love, as the singer longs for someone who is not there, and feels trapped by circumstances that prevent them from being together. The lyrics express a desire for escape, for time to stop so that the two can be together, and for a happy future that the singer hopes to share with the object of their affection.
The first verse describes the singer waking up dreaming of their love interest, wishing they were there with them. The image of drawing a smiling face on a foggy window conveys a sense of longing and loneliness, as if the singer is trying to fill the empty space left by their absence. The chorus repeats the desire for time to stop in this moment, to hear their voice and the promise of future happiness.
The second verse suggests that the singer and their love interest are trapped by their circumstances, which prevent them from being together. They are like prisoners in a cage, unable to realize their dreams, and the distance between them only adds to the pain of being apart. The repetition of the phrase "te me escapas" emphasizes the idea of losing something precious, like water slipping through your fingers or a scream lost in the wind.
Overall, "Chicas de Colegio" portrays the intense feelings of longing and desire that come with unrequited love, and the sense of helplessness that can accompany it. The lyrics express the hope that someday, things will change, and the two can be together.
