Verse 1
Wait
The ship of oblivion hasn't yet departed
Let's not condemn to shipwreck what we lived
For our past, for our love, I ask you
Wait
I still have springs in my hands
To fill you with all new caresses
That would die in my hands if you left
Chorus 1
Wait a little, a little bit more
To take away my happiness
Wait a little, a little bit more
I would die if you leave
Wait a little, a little bit more
To take away my happiness
Wait a little, a little bit more
I would die if you leave
Verse 2
Wait
I still have joys to give you
I have a thousand nights of love to give you
I give you my life in exchange for you staying
Wait
I wouldn't understand my tomorrow if you left
And I even admit that you lied to me about your love
I would adore you even if you didn't love me
Chorus 2
Wait a little, a little bit more
To take away my happiness
Wait a little, a little bit more
I would die if you leave
Wait a little, a little bit more
To take away my happiness
Wait a little, a little bit more
I would die if you leave
Outro
Wait a little, a little bit more
To take away my happiness
Wait a little, a little bit more

SONG MEANING

La Nave del Olvido launches us into a bittersweet voyage where time is the ocean and love is the cargo still waiting on the dock.

With the image of an un-departed ship, José José pleads for just "un poquito más"—a little more time—so he can shower his partner with fresh springtimes, endless nights of affection, and sheer devotion. The singer’s voice trembles between hope and desperation: he would rather accept false love than face the emptiness of goodbye, and he swears that his very happiness, even his life, is tied to the other person’s decision. The song captures that heart-stopping moment when you realize the final boarding call hasn’t sounded yet, and you beg your love to stay aboard before the ship of oblivion slips away forever.
