Nos Fuimos Lejos Lyrics in English by Enrique Iglesias, Descemer Bueno, El Micha
Vuelo literally means "flight" or "a flight". It's an evocative word that suggests soaring, escape, and a journey to new heights.
In "Nos Fuimos Lejos," Enrique Iglesias uses vuelo metaphorically to describe the progression of a passionate relationship. He sings, "Empezamos en el suelo y levantamos vuelo" (We started on the ground and we took flight), implying that their love quickly ascended to an intense and exhilarating level, far beyond the ordinary. This imagery makes it a captivating and memorable word.
This song is all about a connection that's so intense it feels like taking off in a rocket. Enrique Iglesias sings about a night he never wants to end, spent with someone who just gets him. She knows exactly how to make him feel good, or as he puts it, "Ella sabe qué botón tocarme" (She knows what button to push). The feeling is overwhelming, like being "Borracho de amor en sus brazos" (Drunk with love in her arms). It's a one-way ticket to a new place, both physically and emotionally.
The chorus really drives this home with the line "Empezamos en el suelo / Y levantamos vuelo" (We started on the floor / And we took flight). It's a powerful way to describe a relationship escalating from zero to one hundred. Then El Micha jumps in with a playful rap, telling his partner they're going far "sin escala, sin equipaje" (without a layover, without luggage) and cheekily asking her not to hide the apple if her name is Eve. It’s a fun, passionate track about getting completely carried away by someone.
