Llamadas Perdidas Lyrics in English by Ivan Cornejo
Desvelado is a fantastic word that means 'sleepless' or 'to have stayed up all night'. It perfectly describes that feeling of being wide awake when you should be sleeping, often because of worry or anticipation.
In this song about heartbreak, Ivan Cornejo sings, "Desvelado esperando que llames" (Sleepless, waiting for you to call). This single, poetic word powerfully captures the anxiety and heartache of waiting for a call that might never come, painting a vivid picture of a long, lonely night.
Ever had an ex who only calls when they're lonely? Ivan Cornejo has, and he wrote a whole song about it. "Llamadas Perdidas" tells the story of someone who used to be heartbroken, staying up all night, "Como tonto esperando que cambies" (Like a fool waiting for you to change). He was sleepless, waiting for a call that might never come.
But things are different now. The power has completely flipped. He bluntly states, "Contesto la llamada cuando me da gana" (I answer the call when I feel like it). He sees right through his ex's games, calling it a mix of "amor y mentiras" (love and lies). The best part is how he declares that everything is backwards now: "Las cosas cambian, mira todo ya es al revés" (Things change, look, everything is the other way around). It's a satisfying song about taking your power back after someone leaves you with nothing but a smile.
