Vida
AK-7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dime adiós porque me voy
Cariñito de mi vida
Dime adiós porque me voy
No te quiero ver llorar
Yo no te daré por ver
Aunque yo me vaya lejos
Tu retrato y otras prendas
Llevo aquí en mi corazón
Día con día te escribiré
Para que sepas de mí
Aunque yo me encuentre ausente
Sentirás que estoy aquí
Ahora pues compadre, AK-7
Cuando riegues esas plantas
Riégalas con mucho amor
Ellas han de florecer
Mientras pueda regresar
Para que cortes el ramo
Cuando te lleve al altar
Como no compre la vida
Reza mucho a Dios por mí
No me vayas a llorar
Si en el día que muera yo
Solo quiero que me guardes
Luto allá en tu corazón
