Paloma Brava
by Rocío Jurado
Tú piensas que yo soy una paloma
dichosa de picar entre tus manos
el pan que pones cuando se te antoja,
que aveces se te antoja de año en año.
Tú crees que soy de piedra o soy de nieve
que no deseo los besos de tu boca
y crees que en el amor soy indiferente,
por eso tú me das tan poca cosa.
Y yo no soy
como crees que yo soy;
que soy paloma brava
y para saciar mi sed
toda la lluvia no basta.
Que yo no soy
como crees que yo soy;
que soy paloma brava
y para saciar mi sed
toda la lluvia no basta.
Tú crees que soy feliz con casi nada
y estás equivocado por completo;
me tienes que atender como Dios manda
que aún hay mucha mujer en este cuerpo.
Te has confundido, amor, de parte a parte
al darme tus caricias gota a gota;
quizás es que mi amor te viene grande
y encima por ahí, tú lo derrochas.
Y yo no soy
como crees que yo soy;
que soy paloma brava
y para saciar mi sed
toda la lluvia no basta.
Que yo no soy
como crees que yo soy;
que soy paloma brava
y para saciar mi sed
toda la lluvia no basta.
