Quijote
Olivia Ruiz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Los ojos en la luna
Y el corazón en los calcetines
O misterio profundo que decía un amigo una fría fachada que quería cabrear
Mi quijote le quiero a mi quijote ay mi quijote eh eh eh
Es así que me has seducida
Ná dicen las estrellas
Si tus viejos vaqueros amenazan de caer
Si siempre vagabundas no podré nunca luchar
Mi quijote le quiero a mi quijote ay mi quijote eh eh eh
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay ah ah ah ah ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
Es así que me puso nerviosa
Los ojos en la luna
Y el corazón escondido en un pañuelo
Si tus viejos vaqueros amenazan de caer
Si siempre vagabundas no podré nunca luchar
The lyrics of Olivia Ruiz's song Quijote are filled with imagery and metaphorical language that creates a sense of mystery and longing. The singer of the song is seduced by someone (possibly a lover) whose eyes are on the moon, and whose heart is in their socks. This language suggests a sense of distance and elusiveness, making it difficult for the singer to truly connect with this person.
Moreover, a friend describes this person as a "mystery" hiding behind a cold facade, which only makes the singer more intrigued. The repeated refrain of "mi Quijote" (my Don Quixote) suggests that the person the singer is infatuated with might be a dreamer or a romantic idealist, like the titular character of Cervantes' classic novel. The last lines of the song suggest that the singer feels nervous around this person and is afraid that they will never be able to fight for their love if they continue to wander around aimlessly.
Overall, Quijote is a song about the tension between desire and uncertainty, the longing for someone who will always keep you guessing and the fear of not being able to keep up with them. The use of rich and highly suggestive language makes the song a powerful reflection of the complexities of human relationships.
