Those sad eyes, sad eyes
You know I don’t want to say goodbye
Don’t cry, don’t cry
Just hold me one last time

The boy with sad eyes
He lives alone and needs love
Like the air, it needs to see me
Like the sun, I need it
The boy with sad eyes
Has finally found a reason
To make your eyes laugh
With my kisses and my great love

It’s been two years
I keep thinking about you with all my senses
Before it was your eyes raining in autumn
And now they are mine

How it changed, love
Happy we were both
And now I cry, for God’s sake
Sadness dawned on me

The boy with sad eyes
He lives alone and needs love
Like the air, it needs to see me
Like the sun, I need it
The boy with sad eyes (that boy is sad)
He has finally found a reason (I want to hug him)
To make your eyes laugh (and take advantage of the night)
With my kisses and my great love

La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da, da-da, da-da

Video for ‘Ojos Tristes’ by Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco

Although they have made multiple videos, such as ‘Younger And Hotter Than Me’, ‘Sunset Blvd’ and ‘Call Me When You Break Up feat. Gracie Abrams’, this song was not chosen as a single. However, like the rest, it was illustrated with one of the clips from the photo shoot for the album cover, where the couple looks very much in love in an intimate and cozy setting.

Meaning of ‘Sad Eyes’ by Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco

Although this new album in general makes an ode to love, it does not leave aside the painful facets of a relationshipand this song perfectly summarizes a typical trip that for some reason or another had to end. That is to say, it encompasses the first moments of ecstasy after she rescued a desolate young man and they began a beautiful romance; but then, due to things in life, they separated and both are facing the grief of ending what they once believed to be eternal.
