Ximena Sariñana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
El pedazo que quedó desubicado
Porque sé que si lo encuentro no podré guardar silencio
Y sabrás que siendo entera tengo miedo
Si descubro que no siento
Que la pasión me abandonó
Nunca supe usar la razón
Mañana me olvidarán y la historia sigue
Dame un momento, dame un lugar
Sé que si me voy, me voy, me voy, me voy
No vuelvo más dame sentimiento, hazme especial
Sé que si me voy, me voy, me voy, me voy
No vuelvo más y quizá recordarás
Dicen que la vida de un hombre acompañado
Se recuerda más que al hombre solitario
Pero si dejo de perderme
Y llega la felicidad
Sé que no podría aguantar
Sólo los genios permanecen
Mañana me olvidarás y la historia sigue
Dame un momento, dame un lugar
Sé que si me voy, me voy, me voy, me voy
No vuelvo más dame sentimiento, hazme especial
Sé que si me voy, me voy, me voy, me voy
No vuelvo más
Sé que si me voy, me voy, me voy, me voy
No vuelvo más y quizá recordarás
The lyrics to Ximena Sariñana's song No Vuelvo Mas (I'm Not Coming Back) capture the feeling of being lost and searching for something that seems out of reach. The first verse reveals a sense of hopelessness, as the singer has lost their direction and feels like they can't keep searching for something they may never find. If they were to find what they are looking for, they fear they would not be able to keep silent about it, thereby giving away their fear of being whole. The singer is afraid of their own vulnerability and the unknown that comes with it.
The second verse highlights the singer's fear of losing their passion or their attraction to others. They have always been someone who is drawn to fleeting relationships, but they fear that they are losing their spark, that they might be forgotten or replaced. The singer says that even if they do find love or happiness, they won't be able to handle it, as they are not a genius or someone who can sustain it. The song emphasizes the transient nature of relationships and how the singer fears being forgotten in the course of a continuous cycle.
Overall, No Vuelvo Mas speaks to the fear of vulnerability and the fleeting nature of relationships. It is a song about searching for something that you might never find, and the fear of losing what you have. The song urges the listener to be present in the moment and take in the beauty of relationships.
