Era Bella
Bertín Osborne Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Caminando perdido en la noche
Solitario por un callejón
He sentido el rumor de unos pasos
Y oír una voz que me llama al pasar

Estoy sola me dijo y soy joven
Necesito una noche de amor
Pues la vida me ha vuelto la espalda
Quizás tu me hagas sentirme mejor

La vi. tan chiquilla, que casi temblaba
Tenía tanto miedo de amarla
Que la noche estallo en mil colores
En su habitación

Si el amor es un soplo de viento
Yo fui hoja arrastrada por el
Y la ame aquella noche y luego se fue
Pero ya nunca la olvidare

Era bella era bella era bella
Era bello amarla otra vez
Por las noches la busco en aquel callejón
Que me importa la gente, que importa la vida
Que importa sufrir
Que importa vivir
Era bella era bella era bello tenerla así

La vi tan chiquilla, que casi temblaba
Tenia tanto miedo de amarla
Que la noche estallo en mil colores
En su habitación

Era bella era bella
Era bello amarla otra vez
Por las noches la busco en aquel callejón
Que me importa la gente, que importa la vida
Que importa sufrir
Que importa vivir

Era bella era bella
Era bello quererla así





Era bella era bella
Era bello quererla asi

Chris

el amor es un imposible, casi nunca se encuentra, y mucho menos de la manera descrita en esta cancion. Pero si, amar debe ser lindo y que la quieran a una mas, es un sueno imposible, Cecilia
