Esta Noche
Nena Daconte Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tengo las horas contadas contigo
Y no te lo he dicho
Vine buscando mi suerte a este lugar
Por eso ahora no tengo a donde ir.
A veces te marchas, no sé dónde estarás
Yo te espero, por cumplir hasta el final.
Pero esta noche me vestiré de fiesta
Saldré buscando guerra y la voy a encontrar
Que me bese como si conociera
Cada uno de mis besos y se deje besar.
Que cada uno se olvide de lo suyo
Por un momento, una noche nada más
Hay tanta gente perdida por el mundo
Seguro encuentro algún otro corazón.
Que me bese como si no existieran
Mañana los reproches, Mañana Dios dirá
Que bailemos toda la noche entera
Tirados en el suelo sin dejarnos de besar.
Que cada uno se olvide de lo suyo
Por un momento, una noche nada más
Sólo esta noche tumbada en otra cama
Prometo no pensar en ti esta noche nada más.
The lyrics of Nena Daconte's song "Esta Noche" talk about a person who wants everything in life but feels like they have nothing. They only have a limited time left, which they want to spend with someone they care about, but they have not expressed their feelings yet. The singer is searching for their luck and destiny, and they have ended up in this place, which makes them feel lost and without direction. They talk about someone they care about who sometimes disappears, and they do not know where they are or what they are doing, but they still wait for them, fulfilling their promise to them.
However, tonight, they will dress up and go out looking for trouble, and they will find it. They want someone to kiss them as if they know all their kisses, and let them kiss them as well. The singer notes that everyone should forget about their lives and get lost in the moment, even just for a night. They are searching for someone who will kiss them without any inhibitions, and who will not think about tomorrow's consequences. They want to dance the night away with this person, lying on the floor and not stopping their kiss. They promise themselves to think of nothing else tonight, as they will be with this new person.
Overall, the lyrics of "Esta Noche" deal with the singer's search for love, affection, and excitement in their life. They feel lost and directionless, but they hope that they can find someone who will make their life worth living. The song talks about living in the moment and forgetting about the consequences of tomorrow, and how sometimes we need to let loose and lose ourselves in something new to truly live.
