Devuélveme la Vida
Rodrigo Tapari Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴Te fuiste metiendo entre mis venas
Mi vida se ha vuelto una condena, ¡uohohoh!
Tus besos crearon celdas
Difíciles de escapar, imposible derribarlas

Por ti me jugué la vida entera
No hubo razón para que tú te fueras
Robando todos mis sueños

Mi vida, mi alma y el corazón

Devuélveme el amor que tu alma me robó
(Devuélveme la vida)
Tú fuiste toda mi verdad, fuiste mi felicidad
Devuélveme la vida, ¡ohoh!
Devuélveme la vida

Por ti me jugué la vida entera
No hubo razón para que tú, que tú, que tú te fueras
Robando todos mis sueños
Mi vida, mi alma y el corazón

Devuélveme el amor que tu alma me robó
Devuélveme la vida
Tú fuiste toda mi verdad, fuiste mi felicidad
Devuélveme la vida

Devuélveme mis ganas de volar
Te llevaste tú mi vida ¡ouou, oh!
Te llevaste toda la felicidad y mi corazón ¡no, no!

Devuélveme el amor que tu alma me robó
Devuélveme la vida, ¡no!

Que tú fuiste toda mi verdad, fuiste mi felicidad
Devuélveme la vi-i-ie-oh, oh

Devuélveme la vida, ¡uoh oh, oh!
Devuélveme la vida

Overall Meaning

In "Devuélveme la Vida," Rodrigo Tapari sings about a love that has left him feeling broken and empty. The lyrics convey a deep sense of loss and longing for the person who has gone away. The song begins with the image of the lost love "entering between his veins," implying that he has become deeply entwined with this person and cannot separate himself from them. His life has become a "condemnation," and he feels trapped in the cells created by the love that he can't escape or tear down. He has risked everything for this person, but there was no reason for them to leave, and now they have taken away his dreams, his life, his soul, and his heart.

The chorus repeats the plea for his love to be returned, the love that was stolen by the other person's soul. He asks for his life to be given back to him, and for the happiness that he had when he was with this person. He acknowledges that this person was everything to him, his truth, and his happiness. The bridge of the song is a desperate cry for his passion and spark to return, and he accuses the person who left him of taking away his life and his heart.

In summary, "Devuélveme la Vida" is a song about lost love and the pain that comes with it. Tapari's lyrics use vivid imagery to convey the entrapment and emptiness that the singer feels, asking the person who left him to give back everything that was taken away.
