Dreamlike Love: The Essence of 'Creo Estar Soñando'
Jessie Morales' song 'Creo Estar Soñando' captures the euphoric and surreal feeling of being in love. The title itself, which translates to 'I Think I'm Dreaming,' sets the tone for the entire song. The lyrics express a sense of disbelief and overwhelming happiness that comes with being loved by someone special. The chorus, 'siempre soñé que tú vendrías a mí y hoy que es así me siento tan feliz, creo estar soñando cuando tú me besas así,' translates to 'I always dreamed that you would come to me, and now that it is so, I feel so happy, I think I'm dreaming when you kiss me like this.' This encapsulates the dreamlike state the singer finds himself in, unable to fully grasp the reality of his happiness.
In the verses, Morales delves deeper into his emotions, expressing both his intense love and his fears. Lines like 'todo mi amor lo tienes tú mi bien, mi corazón lo tienes tú también' ('all my love you have, my dear, my heart you have too') reveal the depth of his affection. However, this love is accompanied by a fear of loss, as seen in 'pero también tengo miedo de perder tu amor o mi amor no me dejes' ('but I also fear losing your love or my love, don't leave me'). This duality of joy and fear is a common theme in love songs, reflecting the vulnerability that comes with deep emotional connections.
The repetition of the chorus throughout the song reinforces the central theme of a love that feels almost too good to be true. Morales' musical style, often characterized by heartfelt lyrics and traditional Mexican influences, adds an extra layer of authenticity and emotion to the song. 'Creo Estar Soñando' is a beautiful representation of the highs and lows of love, capturing the essence of what it means to be truly, deeply in love.
