Verse 1
Tell me if you want to be with me or if I better go
Your kisses say that yes you love me but your words don't
And honestly, I would even die for you, but you say no
You're not direct, you're already tiring me, please be clear
Chorus 1
And in the night when the stars come out
I think of you, my love
What did you do to me? You don't leave my mind
And I'm not saying it to be cheesy
If you tell me what I am for you
I won't hesitate to make you so happy, you're special to me
Tell me why you make me suffer?
I'll forget you from the fountains of Ortiz
Verse 2
I'm insecure when you say that you love me because I think that no
Like a baby, I fall, but right into your love trap
Just tell me if you love me, please
I've suffered and gotten drunk so much for your love
Chorus 2
And in the night when the stars come out
I think of you, my love
What did you do to me? You don't leave my mind
And I'm not saying it to be a jerk
If you tell me what I am for you
I won't hesitate to make you so happy, you're special to me
Tell me why you make me suffer?
I will forget you from the fountains of Ortiz
But from the heart of Durango, my little eyes
What a machine, buddy
Chorus 3
And now tell me if you love me, please
I have suffered and gotten drunk so much for your love
And in the night when the stars come out
I think of you, my love
What did you do to me? You don't leave my mind
And I'm not saying it to be a jerk
If you tell me what I am for you
I won't hesitate to make you so happy, you're special to me
Tell me why you make me suffer?
I will forget you from the fountains of Ortiz

SONG MEANING

“Fuentes De Ortiz” feels like a late–night confession shouted under the stars while the accordion sings along. The narrator is madly in love yet stuck in emotional limbo: her kisses say yes, her words say maybe, and his poor heart can’t keep up. He begs her to be clear, revealing how deep his devotion runs—he would “die” for her, he drinks to drown the doubt, and every evening he still looks to the sky hoping she might finally give him a straight answer.

The title points to a famous spot with fountains in Chihuahua where couples often meet. For him it becomes the imaginary place where he’ll try to forget her if she keeps playing with his feelings. In short, the song is a norteño roller-coaster of longing, insecurity, and stubborn hope. It captures that bittersweet moment when love is almost within reach, yet just uncertain enough to hurt—and the only cure seems to be either total commitment or walking away to those fountains of Ortiz.
