Siemprequieroloquenotengo Lyrics in English Marc Segui
Petit is a French word meaning "small" or "little," often used in Spanish in specific contexts, particularly when referring to childhood or something endearing.
In this song, Marc Segui uses it to say "Desde que era petit" (Since I was little), adding a touch of nostalgia and a unique, almost poetic, flair to his reflection on childhood dreams. It's an interesting word choice that stands out from typical Spanish vocabulary.
Have you ever dreamed of getting everything you wanted, only to find out it's not what you expected? In "Siempre quiero lo que no tengo," which means "I always want what I don't have," Marc Segui explores this exact feeling. He sings about achieving the life he dreamed of as a kid: a successful music career with fans at his concerts and a life spent in airports. But instead of happiness, he finds a strange emptiness.
The song reveals a deep irony. Now that he has fame and success, he feels overwhelmed and disconnected, even admitting he doesn't answer his own mother's calls. He longs for the simple things he's lost, like relaxing in his living room or just having time to waste. The lyrics express a powerful paradox: "I always have everything I don't want / I always want what I don't have." It's a classic case of the grass being greener on the other side, showing that achieving a dream doesn't always bring the fulfillment you hope for.
