Por Que Te Niegas

“Por Qué Te Niegas,” composed by Mickey Then and JR, features a collaborative leadership style, alternating between the saxophone and brass sections. The piano and woodwinds introduce a novel approach to guitar lead parts, while the string section provides support through dynamic lines.
"Por Qué Te Niegas" is a passionate bachata track that explores a man's deep longing for a woman who resists his love due to past emotional wounds. The lyrics express his frustration and vulnerability as he pleads for her to see that his intentions are genuine and different from those who have hurt her before. Despite her denial, he senses a mutual attraction and emotional connection and longs to be close to her both emotionally and physically. The song touches on themes of unrequited love, emotional tension, persistence, and devotion, with the narrator comparing his unwavering loyalty to that of a faithful dog. Blending romantic and sensual elements with the rhythmic charm of bachata, the song captures the universal yearning to break through emotional barriers and be fully accepted by someone you love.

This song is a loud and fun song. The question of the song is posed through the louder instruments like the brass and saxophones to not only show the partner the frustration over their hesitation but also the passion behind wanting to love her with everything and show it. This will definitely be a fun one to hear live.

Original Lyrics

Verse 1

No puedes negar, que cuando yo estoy cerca, no te puedes resistir
Pero tu pasado siempre te aleja de mí, Yo soy diferente no lo ves, que quiero hacerte feliz

Me subes al cielo, y me dejas caer

Y vuelvo a tus brazos como un perro fiel, tan solo te quiero preguntar

Chorus 1

¿Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebé
Si sientes fuego al mirarme? Lo sé
Que ganas sobran de besarme, y yo también
Muero por tenerte desnuda, otra vez

¿Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebé
Si sientes fuego al mirarme? Lo sé
Que ganas sobran de besarme, y yo también
Muero por tenerte en mi cama, otra vez

Verse 2

Me subes al cielo, y me dejas caer

Y vuelvo a tus brazos como un perro fiel, tan solo te quiero preguntar

Chorus 2

¿Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebé
Si sientes fuego al mirarme? Lo sé
Que ganas sobran de besarme, y yo también
Muero por tenerte en mi cama, otra vez

Mami, only you, me tiene' uh, dibareando, uh
Lo hacemo' a tu manera, cuando tú quiera', donde tú quiera'
Ven, que el tiempo está pasando y las ganas aumentando
Si yo te gusto, mi amor

Final Chorus

¿Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebé
Si sientes fuego al mirarme? Lo sé
Que ganas sobran de besarme, y yo también
Muero por tenerte desnuda, otra vez

Si sientes fuego al mirarme? Lo sé
Que ganas sobran de besarme, y yo también
Muero por tenerte en mi cama, otra vez

Bailemos, que estés conmigo, tiene sentido
Regálame una noche más, don't matter
Baby, don't worry, you can be my shorty
Even if it's just one last time
