Tres Deseos (Three Wishes) lyrics
Song information
Artist: Gloria Estefan
Album: Abriendo Puertas
Lyrics
This song is a blend of merengue "pambiche" (one of the most comples merengue grooves) with vallenato. the fast intricate melodic lines from the saxophone section, brass section, steel string guitar, and the accordion gives the song a totally fresh taste to the rhythmic and sonic texture. the lyrics of this song are about how good it is to have love in our hearts for the people that mean the most to us. it says "bad moments are gone, and the good times are coming". in the chorus we ask for three wishes (tres deseos) to the little eastern star. they are let your dreams come true, let a better world flourish, and lets bring peace to the world!
