After assembling his own band, Palomo started getting involved in the tejano scene, covering hit songs and paying tribute to Ramón Ayala. The group's first original record was released in 1998, followed by 2000's No Llores Mas, which included the hit single "Te Vas Con El." The group became one of the most popular regional Mexican outfits after issuing Fuerza Musical in mid-2001.

Amiga Mía
Palomo Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Una amiga eso piensas todavía
Que eres solo una amiga yo podría
Verte así toda la vida

Mas que importa lo que pienses si algún día
Sentiría esto que siento y ya no puedo
Esconderlo por mas tiempo

Es difícil de aceptar
Después de una amistad tan larga
Que duele el alma
Y se comporta el corazón como un idiota
Llenándome de ideas con tu boca
Que solo sabe repetir
Que soy tu amigo
Y ya no se que hacer

Porque tu mi dulce compañera
El día que me quieras tu amiga mía
Haría realidad todas mis fantasías

Tu que a sido la primera
De este amor que espera ser tuyo algún día
Y no se como hacerlo todavía

Mas que importa lo que pienses si algún día
Sentiría esto que siento y ya no puedo
Esconderlo por mas tiempo

Es difícil de aceptar
Después de una amistad tan larga
Que duele el alma
Y se comporta el corazón como un idiota
Llenándome de ideas con tu boca
Que solo sabe repetir
Que soy tu amigo
Y ya no se que hacer

Porque tu mi dulce compañera
El día que me quieras tu amiga mía
Haría realidad todas mis fantasías

Tu que a sido la primera
De este amor que espera ser tuyo algún día
Y no se como hacerlo

Porque tu mi dulce compañera
El día que me quieras tu amiga mía
Haría realidad todas mis fantasías

Tu que a sido la primera

De este amor que espera ser tuyo algún día
Y no se como hacerlo todavía

Overall Meaning

The song "Amiga Mia" by Palomo tells the story of a man who is in love with his friend, but she only sees him as a friend. He confesses his feelings to her, even though he knows it could potentially ruin their friendship. The song beautifully captures the vulnerability and raw emotions that come with confessing unrequited love.

At the beginning of the song, the man expresses that his friend only sees him as a friend, and that he could continue living as just a friend with her forever. However, he cannot hide his true feelings anymore and feels like he needs to express them. He admits that it's difficult to come to terms with the fact that his friend doesn't see him the same way, especially after a long friendship, and that it hurts his soul.

The chorus explains that if she were to ever love him back, all of his fantasies and dreams would come true. He wants to be with her romantically, but doesn't know how to make it happen since she just sees him as a friend. The song portrays the painful and confusing experience of unrequited love, and the difficulty of deciding whether to confess one's feelings or continue living in the friendzone.
