Vete de mi
Café Quijano Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y me pides que te entregue el alma
Por dos noches de embriaguez
Que nunca, nunca debieron ser
Si mi culpa sólo fue ser hombre
Por quedarme a solas con tu cuerpo
No me cobres precio tan alto, mujer
Por eso, sólo por eso
Por eso te pido mujer
Vete de mí, mujer embriagadora
Vete de mí, mujer
Vete de mí, mujer embriagadora
Vete de mí, mujer
La suerte ha mal dicho mis días
Y la misma suerte en ti no confía
Qué tiene de malo habernos conocido
Si de vez en cuando cubrimos, nuestro vacío
Tu sufrir es la necesidad de amor
Y el mío haber amado tanto
No me exijas nada por dos noches
Que no busqué, que me arrepiento, tú me engañaste
Por eso, sólo por eso
Por eso te pido mujer
Vete de mí, mujer embriagadora
Vete de mí, mujer
Vete de mí, mujer embriagadora
Vete de mí, mujer
