Serenata Huasteca
Adan Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

canto al pie de tu ventana
Pa' que sepas que te quiero
Tu a mi no me quieres nada
Pero yo por ti me muero

Dicen que ando muy herrado
Que despierte de mis suenos
Pero se an equivocado

Por que yo he de ser tu dueno

Que voy a hacer
Si deveras te quiero
Ya te adore
Y olvidarte no puedo

Dicen que pa' conseguirte
Necesito una fortuna
Que devo bajar del cielo
Las estrellas y la luna

Yo no bajare la luna
Ni las estrellas tampoco
Y aunque no tenga fortuna
Me querras poquito a poco

Que voy a hacer
Si deveras te quiero
Ya te adore
Y olvidarte no puedo

Yo se que hay muchas mujeres
Y que sobre que me quieran
Pero ninguna me importa
Solo pienso ti en morena

Mi corazon ta a escogido
Y llorar no quiero verlo
Ya el pobre mucho a sufrido
Y ahora tienes que quererlo

Que voy a hacer
Si deveras te quiero

Ya te adore
Y olvidarte no puedo
