Verse 1
I want to sleep tired
To not think about you
I want to sleep deeply
And not wake up crying
With the pain of not seeing you
I want to sleep tired
And I don't want to wake up
I want to sleep eternally
Because I'm in love
And that love doesn't understand me
Chorus 1
Sleeping, living, sleeping
Dreaming, living, dreaming
Until you come back
And you surrender in my arms
I prefer to live sleeping
I don't want to live crying
Until you understand
That I'm still in love
Verse 2
I want to sleep tired
To not think about you
I want to sleep deeply
And not wake up crying
With the pain of not seeing you
I want to sleep tired
And I don't want to wake up
I want to sleep eternally
Because I'm in love
And that love doesn't understand me
Chorus 2
Sleeping, living, sleeping
Dreaming, living, dreaming
Until you come back
And you surrender in my arms
I prefer to live sleeping
I don't want to live crying
Until you understand
That I'm still in love

SONG MEANING

Quiero Dormir Cansado turns heartbreak into a restless night that Ivan Cornejo longs to escape. He wishes to be so tired that he slips into deep, unbroken sleep where thoughts of his unreachable love cannot hurt him. In dreams he can still hold her close, far from the tears that greet him when he is awake.

Over gentle Regional Mexican melodies, the chorus repeats like a lullaby, redefining sleep as the only way to live until she finally understands his devotion. It is a bittersweet confession for anyone who has ever chosen comforting fantasies over painful reality, capturing both the ache of longing and the fragile hope tucked inside every dream-filled night.
