Nelson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Para que aguantara
Toda la madrugada
Esperando tu llamada
Spoiler no pasó
Y la verdad dolió
Pero aunque me des menos
Yo te quiero más mi amor
Jugando Fortnite a las tres de la mañana
Te siento lejos, ya mi corazón te extraña
Te cierro la puerta pero te abro la ventana
Me siento Eva comiéndome la manzana
Muero de frío si no estás aquí conmigo
Tu amor se aleja pero siempre lo persigo
Y voy, de aquí, de allá, lo intento
Trato de hallarlo pero nunca lo consigo
Oh no, ya te volví buscar
Oh no, todo lo que hago es recordarte
Oh no, no te voy a superar
Porque tú siempre aquí estás, ni tengo que mencionarte
Tomando café del Oxxo
Para poder pensar
Cómo poder estar estar
Sin ti
This too shall pass, no lo creo
Porque cuando veo nuestras fotos y videos
Mi cora' se hace mudo y ahora solo titubeo
Mis ojos están tristes desde que yo no te veo
¿Crees que esté bien?
Por ahora no lo sé
Aunque tú no estás
Y todo sale mal
Y así seguirá
Tomando café del Oxxo
Para que aguantara
Toda la madrugada
Esperando tu llamada
Voy a estar bien
Créeme estaré bien
Porque aunque tú no estés
Todo me saldrá bien
Y pronto pasará
The lyrics of Nelson's song "Cafe Del Mar" depict the emotions and thoughts of someone going through a difficult time in a relationship.
In the first paragraph, the singer expresses their disappointment and hurt that the person they were waiting for did not call or reach out to them. Despite feeling hurt, they declare their love for that person and their willingness to continue loving them even if they receive less in return.
The second paragraph introduces the singer playing Fortnite at 3 AM and feeling a sense of distance from their loved one. They close and open doors metaphorically, indicating their attempts to keep the person out of their life yet still deeply craving their presence. They compare themselves to Eva from the biblical story, eating the forbidden apple, suggesting that they are tempted by their desire for this person.
The third paragraph reflects the singer's longing for their loved one's physical presence. They feel cold and incomplete without them and constantly pursue their love, but never fully find it. They question whether their constant search for love is worth it.
The fourth paragraph begins with the singer expressing their continued efforts to find their loved one, unaware of whether it will lead to positive results. They admit to constantly thinking about and remembering their past together, which brings them pain. They doubt that they will ever truly get over the person, as their presence is always with them, even when they don't mention them explicitly.
In the final lines, the singer again mentions drinking coffee from a store called Oxxo, which could symbolize their attempt to find solace or clarity in their thoughts. They reflect on the difficulty of being without their loved one and trying to figure out how to live without them. However, they also express hope that with time, they will eventually be fine and everything will work out. They anticipate that the pain and longing will pass.
