Hoy
Santiago Vélez Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sin saber por qué
Sigo esperándote
Ya no sé que hacer
Hoy, yo me levanté
Con el pie que no es
Sigo pensándote
Hoy, yo te mentí
Ya no quiero salir
No sé que haría si
Tu estás por ahí
Hoy, quiero decirte
Por décima vez
Que ya no puedo
Dejarte otra vez
Hoy, me estoy perdiendo
De todo lo bueno
Que tiene el mundo
Y para ser sincero
Estoy cansado
De no poder verlo
Por extrañarte
Y no verte de nuevo
Hoy, tu te cambiaste
El color del pelo
Y yo encontraba
En él consuelo
Hoy, tu me dijiste
que me querías
Y mantuviste
la lejanía
Hoy, yo te escribí
Otra canción
Ya no me acuerdo
De cuántas son
Hoy, me estoy perdiendo
De todo lo bueno
Que tiene el mundo
Y para ser sincero
Estoy cansado
De no poder verlo
Por extrañarte
Y no verte de nuevo
The lyrics of Santiago Vélez's song "Hoy" explore the feelings of longing, confusion, and emotional exhaustion that come with missing someone. The singer wakes up without knowing why they are still waiting for this person, feeling at a loss about what to do. Throughout the song, they express their thoughts and emotions, hoping to express their feelings to this person who seems distant.
The singer admits to lying and not wanting to go out anymore, unsure of how they would react if they were to come across this person. They desperately want to tell them, for the tenth time, that they cannot let them go again. They feel like they are losing out on all the good things the world has to offer because they are constantly thinking of this person and missing them.
The lyricist mentions a change in the person's hair color, finding comfort and solace in it before realizing their own confusion about their feelings. The person tells them they love them but keeps their distance, further adding to the confusion and longing. The singer also mentions writing another song for them but has lost count of how many they have written.
