Para El Sur El Norte Está Lejos
Claudio Taddei Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Quiero saber de ti
Quiero que escribas cartas de nuevo
Quiero que lleguen al vuelo
Hace tiempo que no se nada de vos
Hace tiempo, tanto tiempo que ni me acuerdo
Querido amigo te escribo en el tiempo
Una botella en el mar
Una botella que con el viento alas le naceran
Y llega, llega junto con el recuerdo
Y llega, como este sentimiento
Quien iba a pensar
Quien iba a decir, que cuanto mas cerca mas lejos
Quien iba a pensar,
Quien iba a decir, que para el Sur el Norte esta lejos
El mundo en el mapa de la escuela
Te aseguro no era asi
Creia que todo estaba mas cerca
Creia que de lejos te podia seguir viendo
Pero cada vez estas mas lejos
Es cierto como este sentimiento
Quien iba a ...
...a Vincenzo.
