Mi otra mitad
Camela Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Enamorarme quisier,
Pedi el deseo en el jardin del amor,
Ya me pase de los 30 y aun sigo
Sin ver la flor.

Dicen que a todo el mundo nos llega,
A mi puerta nisiquiera llamó,
Y eso que la tengo abierta
Que espera si invito yo.

Empieza agobiarme la situación,
Como me voy a calmar,
Si me falta mi otra mitad.
Quien dijo que el amor no se busca se encuentra,
Sabio de mierda, ya te lo explico yo..
Que perdi la paciencia en lista de espera,
Mi turno no llega y se pasa el arroz.
Quien dijo que el amor da dolor de cabeza,
Vaya sentencia ya la quisiera yo,
Y no esta penitencia, que por experiencia
Te digo no esperes tanto como yo.

Una vez vi una belleza,
Mira que suerte que en mi se fijó,
Iba en el metro y por no estar atento,
Perdi el vagon.

Otra vez voy a lanzar la moneda,
Pero ya no perdere la ocasion.
Si sale cara le entro,
Y si es cruz la volteo yo.

Empieza agobiarme la situación,
Como me voy a calmar,
Si me falta mi otra mitad.
Quien dijo que el amor no se busca se encuentra,
Sabio de mierda, ya te lo explico yo..
Que perdi la paciencia en lista de espera,
Mi turno no llega y se pasa el arroz.
Quien dijo que el amor da dolor de cabeza,
Vaya sentencia ya la quisiera yo,
Y no esta penitencia, que por experiencia
Te digo no esperes tanto como yo.

Empieza agobiarme la situación,
Como me voy a calmar,
Si me falta mi otra mitad.
Quien dijo que el amor no se busca se encuentra,
Sabio de mierda, ya te lo explico yo..
Que perdi la paciencia en lista de espera,
Mi turno no llega y se pasa el arroz.
Quien dijo que el amor da dolor de cabeza,
Vaya sentencia ya la quisiera yo,




Y no esta penitencia, que por experiencia
Te digo no esperes tanto como yo.
