Edimburgo
Melocos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yo te escribo dos canciones
Niña triste si tu mirada
Hay que mimar
Si te vas a descansar
De caramelo y plastilina
Empezaras a decorar
Se que es muy dificil para ti...
Te tumbaras a adivinar
La forma de las nubes
Y los aviones
Que tu quieres inventar
Y cuando empieze a resbalar
El agua herida
Por tus ojos
Su alegria te abrazara
Se que es muy dificil para ti
Pero es hora de que empiezes a reir
Si dulces son los sueños que manejas
Dulce hasta en la forma en que te quejas
Dulce es tu manera de pedirme esta cancion
Niña triste, niña triste de algodon
Y si aprendes a esperar
Dibujaras con su dedo
Una sonrisa
Empapada en un cristal
Y cuando vuelva su estacion
De primavera veras
Como florecen las tonterias
Sin pensar
Se que es muy dificil para ti
Pero es hora de que empiezes a reir
Si dulces son los sueños que manejas
Dulce hasta en la forma en que te quejas
Dulce es tu manera de pedirme esta cancion
Niña triste, niña triste de algodon
Dulces son los sueños que manejas
Dulce hasta en la forma en que te quejas
Dulce es tu manera de pedirme esta cancion
Niña triste, niña triste de algodon
The song "Edimburgo" by Melocos is about a girl who is sad and needs to be cared for. The singer offers to write two songs for her while she rests. He then describes how she should take a break from the world and start decorating the city with candy and modeling clay. Despite being difficult for her, the singer encourages the girl to lie down and start guessing the shapes of the clouds and the planes that she wants to invent.
As the girl starts to cry and her tears slip down her face, the singer assures her that her happiness will soon come back. He tells her that it's time to start laughing again and waiting patiently for the things she wants. He reminds her of the sweetness of her dreams, her complaints, and even her way of asking for this song.
The song is a gentle and delicate reminder that although life can be tough, there is always something to look forward to. The singer's words soothe and comfort the girl, and he reminds her to focus on the good things in life, even in difficult times.
