velita Meaning & Lyrics (Greg Taro)
Greg Taro sings that a tiny candle lights the room and burns away old ghosts. Blake Martin writes that a bold lover opens a closed door without words, like an abracadabra.
Hacía TiempoIt’d been a while,
Que Ya No Me Prestaba AtenciónSince I’d paid myself any attention.
Me Tenía Un Poco OlvidadoI’d been a little forgotten,
Tan Cerca Y Tan Lejos De MiSo close and yet so far from me.
Vaya TonteríaWhat a silly thing to do,
Esperar Que Sea La CasualidadTo wait for chance,
Que Me Trajese A Ti A Mi VidaTo bring you into my life.
Por Suerte Fuiste Más AtrevidaLuckily, you were bolder.
Cuando Me Hablas Al OídoWhen you whisper in my ear,
Se Me Llena De Nuditos Hasta Mi VozEven my voice gets all tied up in knots.
Son Esos OjitosIt’s those little eyes of yours,
Que Me Hacen Prometerte QueThat make me promise you that…
Esa Velita Que Tú EncendisteThat little candle that you lit,
Llegaste Pa Quemar Todos Esos Fantasmas En La CamaYou came to burn away all those ghosts in bed.
No Esperaste Ni A La MadrugadaYou didn’t even wait for the morning.
Me ElectrocutéI was electrified,
Corriendo A Mil Por Hora Por Tu PielRunning a thousand miles an hour across your skin.
Lo Nuestro Durará Más Que Solo Un Fin De SemanaThis thing of ours will last more than just a weekend,
Pero Si Algun Dia Esto Se AcabaBut if one day this ends,
Que No Se Apague Esa VelitaDon’t let that little candle go out.
Quien Me Diria Que Abrirías Tu Mi Puerta CerradaWho would’ve told me you’d open my closed door,
Con Ninguna PalabraWithout a single word,
Con Un AbracadabraWith an abracadabra.
Cada Noche Ahora Se Siente Como Un Viaje Sin MapaEvery night now feels like a journey without a map,
Sin Reglas Ni CapasWithout rules or layers.
Son Tus Manos Que Me GuíanIt’s your hands that guide me.
