No Queria Llorar
Negros Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lo que nos pasaba
Que tu me olvidaras
Crei que era un dia mas en que te enojabas
Y pasaron dias (eh eh)
Pasaron semanas
Y ya te extrañaba
Ya me preocupaba
Por eso mis llamadas amor
Por que no quería llorar
Yo no
Por que no quería sentir tu adiós
En cada timbrada
Que mi móvil daba
Yo quería escuchar tu voz
Y no la escuchaba
Por que no quería llorar
Yo no
Por que no quería sentir tu adiós
Y pasaron años
Y yo te llamaba
Pa ver si era en serio
O si tú jugabas
Por que siempre te espere
Para no llorar
Yo no
Y pasaron años
Pasaron semanas
Días todo
Y ya te extrañaba
Yo me preocupaba
Y era por eso mi insistencia amor
Eran por eso mis llamadas
Por que no quería llorar
Yo no
Por que no quería sentir tu adiós
En cada timbrada
Que mi móvil daba
Yo quería escuchar tu voz
Y no la escuchaba
Por que no quería llorar
Yo no
Por que no quería sentir tu adiós
Porque siempre te espere
Para no llorar
Yo no
In "No Queria Llorar," Negros sings about the pain of waiting for someone who may not return their affections. The singer believed that the relationship was a simple game of love that would end when the other person forgot about them or got over their anger. However, after days and then weeks passed without any contact, the singer began to miss their love interest and worry that they may be gone for good.
The repeated refrain of "Por que no quería llorar" ("Because I didn't want to cry") emphasizes the strong emotions that the singer is feeling. They don't want to face the pain of losing their love and therefore keep calling and waiting, hoping to hear the other person's voice. Time passes, and the singer still hasn't received any response, yet they continue to hold onto hope and maintain their persistence.
Overall, "No Queria Llorar" captures the feelings of uncertainty, longing, and desperation in a relationship where one person is more invested than the other. It's a poignant portrayal of the difficulties of letting go and moving on, even when it seems like the other person has already done so.
