Tómame o Déjame
Thalía Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tómame o déjame
Pero no me pidas que te crea más
Cuando llegas tarde a casa
No tienes porque inventar
Pues tu ropa huele a leña de otro hogar

Tómame o déjame
Si no estoy despierta, déjame soñar
No me beses en la frente
Sabes que te oí llegar
Y tu beso sabe a culpabilidad

Tú me admiras porque callo y miro al cielo
Porque no me ves llorar
Y te sientes cada día más pequeño
Y esquivas mi mirada en tu mirar

Tómame o déjame
Ni te espío ni te quito libertad
Pero si dejas el nido
Si me vas a abandonar
Hazlo antes de que empiece a clarear

Tú me admiras porque callo y miro al cielo
Porque no me ves llorar
Y te sientes cada día más pequeño
Y esquivas mi mirada en tu mirar

Tómame o déjame
Y si vuelves trae contigo la verdad
Trae erguida la mirada




Trae contigo a mi rival
Si es mejor que yo, podré entonces llorar

Overall Meaning

The song "Tómame o Déjame" by Thalia talks about a relationship where the trust has been broken, and the singer is struggling to believe the excuses and lies told by their partner. The lyrics reveal the frustration and pain that the singer feels when their partner arrives late, and their clothes smell of another person's home. The singer questions if they should stay in the relationship or leave because they can't continue living with the doubts and mistrust.


The chorus "Tómame o Déjame" translates to "Take me or leave me", suggesting that the singer is giving their partner an ultimatum. However, they don't want to be lied to anymore, and they want their partner to bring the truth when they return. The singer feels small and diminished in the relationship because they are the one who tries to keep things together and doesn't express their emotions openly. The final verse reveals a sad truth - the singer is willing to accept that someone else may be better for their partner and cry if they leave with them.


The song's lyrics are powerful and emotive, painting a vivid picture of a relationship that is hanging by a thread. Thalia's earnest vocal delivery adds to the depth of emotion conveyed in the lyrics, and the arrangement is a perfect blend of modern and traditional instrumentation.

Pero no me pidas que te crea más
But don't ask me to believe you anymore


Cuando llegas tarde a casa
When you come home late


No tienes porque inventar
You don't have to make things up


Pues tu ropa huele a leña de otro hogar

And your kiss tastes like guilt

And you avoid my gaze in your own


Ni te espío ni te quito libertad
I don't spy on you or take away your freedom


Pero si dejas el nido
But if you leave the nest


Si me vas a abandonar
If you're going to leave me


Hazlo antes de que empiece a clarear
Do it before dawn breaks


Y si vuelves trae contigo la verdad
And if you come back, bring the truth with you


Trae erguida la mirada
Bring your head held high


Trae contigo a mi rival
Bring my rival with you


Si es mejor que yo, podré entonces llorar
If they're better than me, then I can cry
