Que está pasando en mí
Nicole Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No sabes que aunque tengo mis muñecas
adornadas con tus manos
sigo niña inocente
y mi voz dice detente
no he crecido suficiente
me lo han dicho ayer mis padres

Mi corazón pintado de naranja
va cambiando de colores
cuando miro tus azules
ojos limpios y corrientes
corren puros y crecientes
inundándome hasta el alma

(Chorus)

Que está pasando en mí
que me siento despertando
de un largo fin
que sin duda estoy cambiando
a pesar de lo que digan mis mayores
que protegen sus temores
y ya no me cuentan nada

Que está pasando en mí
Que está pasando en mí

Girando con el sol voy alumbrando
los matices de mi cara
y mis labios como imanes
se te acercan susurrando
no es correcto estoy temblando
despertando de la calma

(Chorus)

Que está pasando en mí
que me siento despertando
de un largo fin
que sin duda estoy cambiando
a pesar de lo que digan mis mayores
que protegen sus temores
y ya no me cuentan nada

Que está pasando en mí
Que está pasando en mí

Nerviosa conseguí lo inexplicable
me recuesto en tu hombro
oscurezco en mi tus ojos
y flotando entre las flores
sensaciones y terrores
por saber que está pasando

(Chorus)

Que está pasando en mí
que me siento despertando
de un largo fin
que sin duda estoy cambiando
a pesar de lo que digan mis mayores
que protegen sus temores
y ya no me cuentan nada





Que está pasando en mí
Que está pasando en mí.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Nicole's song "Que está pasando en mí" express the confusion and excitement of a young girl experiencing the awakening of her sexuality. The singer admits to being innocent and not yet mature enough for what is happening to her, as her parents reminded her just yesterday. However, she also acknowledges that something inside of her is changing, that she is "waking up from a long end" and that she is changing despite what her elders may say to protect their own fears.


The color metaphor is used throughout the song as a representation of the singer's changing emotions. Her heart, painted orange, is becoming a more intricate blend of colors as she falls for the blue eyes of her love interest. She feels her own attraction growing, despite her nervousness and the uncertainty of what is happening to her.


In the third verse, the singer admits to feeling "sensations and terrors" as she "floats among the flowers" with her love interest. This implies that she is not ready to fully understand the physical aspect of what is happening to her, but she is also not sure if she wants to. Her own curiosity and natural impulses are competing with the expectations of her family and society, leaving her in a state of confusion, but also hopefulness.
