Una y Otra Vez
Alta Consigna Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Dices que tu ya no puedes quieres aguantando
Aceptó que te falle pero ya estoy cambiando
No te demostré mi amor y ahora me está matando
Me dijiste tantas veces y yo tantas veces que lo hice caso
Y ahora Mira por lo que estamos pasando
Fui una vez y otra vez que me dijiste que fuera cambiando
Pero no quise entender y con el tiempo te fuiste alejando
Y no puedo aceptar el hecho de ser sólo amigos
No necesito gritarle al mundo que te quiero
Bien se oye mejor cuando te lo digo en silencio
Me dijiste tantas veces y yo tantas veces que no te hice caso
Y ahora Mira por todo lo que estamos pasando
Fui una vez y otra vez que me dijiste que fuera cambiando
Pero no quise entender y con el tiempo te fuiste alejando
Y ahora vuelvo arrepentido pues tú eres como el aire que respiro
Y no puedo aceptar el hecho de ser sólo amigos
