La Boca Junta (feat. Mau y Ricky)
Melendi
A Dance of Love Under the Moonlight
Melendi's song "La Boca Junta," featuring Mau y Ricky, is a romantic and passionate exploration of love and intimacy. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two lovers dancing under the moonlight, symbolizing the union of their hearts and souls. The metaphor of sewing two hearts together in the space-time continuum suggests a deep, almost cosmic connection that requires care and tenderness. The desire to be like a monkey from documentaries, clinging tightly to one another, emphasizes the physical and emotional closeness the singer craves.
The song also delves into the transformative power of love. The singer describes how his life changed completely when his lover arrived, turning his world upside down. This newfound love has made him do things he never thought he would, like buying flowers and dedicating songs. The repeated line, "No sé qué me pasa" (I don't know what's happening to me), captures the bewildering and overwhelming nature of falling deeply in love.
The chorus, with its invitation to dance a bolero and the promise to take the lover to heaven, highlights the romantic and almost sacred nature of their relationship. The question, "¿Cómo me vas a decir te quiero si ya tenemos la boca junta?" (How are you going to tell me you love me if our mouths are already together?), underscores the idea that their love is so profound and evident that words are almost unnecessary. The song beautifully captures the essence of love as an all-encompassing, transformative force that brings two people closer than they ever thought possible.
