Tus amores, tus temores y tu sed
que me lleve en corto paso fantasmal.

Los momentos y rencores que deje
explicación, que con sigilo callare.

Así volvió, juegos de azar.

Una tarde, unas lagrimas de fe
una caricia prohibida en lo mortal.

Mientras mas cerca sentías mi afección
te envenenaba con momentos de amor.

Así partió, juegos de azar.

No necesito, verte llorar
para saber que nunca te iba a amar
yo me quedo en silencio, por favor
tu sufrimiento clava
las esquirlas del dolor.

Tu volverás a volver a verme, tu volverás,
tu volverás a volver a verme
siempre sin pensar.

Así partió, juegos de azar.

Lloran, grises, tardes frías de verano.

No necesito, verte llorar
para saber que nunca te iba a amar
yo me quedo en silencio, por favor
tu sufrimiento clava
las esquirlas del dolor.

Tu volverás a volver a verme, tu volverás,
tu volverás a volver a verme
siempre sin pensar.
