Porque no supiste entender a mi corazón
Lo que había en el
Porque no tuviste el valor de ver quien soy

Porque no escuchas lo que está tan cerca de ti
Solo el ruido de afuera y yo
Que estoy a un lado desaparezco para ti

No voy a llorar y decir
Que no merezco esto
Por que
Es probable que
Lo merezco, pero no lo quiero por eso me voy

Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti y me voy
Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti

Porque sé que me espera algo mejor
Alguien que sepa darme amor
De ese que endulza la sal
Y hace que salga el sol
Yo que pensé nunca me iría de ti
Que es amor del bueno de toda la vida
Pero hoy entendí que no hay suficiente para los dos

No voy a llorar y decir
Que no merezco esto
Porque
Es probable que
Lo merezco, pero no lo quiero por eso me voy

Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti y me voy
Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti

Me voy
Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti y me voy
Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti y me voy

Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti y me voy
Que lastima pero adiós
Me despido de ti y me voy

    My Interpretation

    because you didn't understand what's in my heart. because you didn't have the courage to see who i am.

    because you don't listen to the things closest to you. you only listen to the noises outside. And i, the person right next to you, disappear completely.

    But i'm not gonna cry and say that i don't deserve this. Because maybe i do, but still, i don't want this. So i'm leaving.

    Too bad, but good bye. I'm leaving you. Fare thee well.

    because i know someone better awaits me. someone that knows how to love. someone that will turn salt into sugar, and night into day.

    You see, I thought i would never leave you. i thought our love was good and ever lasting. but now i understand that's not gonna be enough for us.

    So i'm not gonna cry and say that i don't deserve this, because i probably do. Still, i don't want it, so i'm leaving.

    Too bad, but good bye. i'm leaving you, fare thee well.

    This obviously isn't a literal translation. I want to translate the emotions (i think) she conveyed through american phrasings. I'm only learning spanish and i want to relate the lyrics with the language i'm used to hearing and thinking. if i would've directly translate it, it would've sounded too rigid for me.

    The song is particularly beautiful because of the melody. the waltz-y rithym lends a romantic feel, while the actual lyrics can be quite cold. The chorus may lead you into believing that she still misses him, because maybe the relationship isn't that bad. But as she mentions, she believes she can find someone better, someone who's ideal, so she isn't settling and she isn't looking back.

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
