Me tengo que marchar, no te puedo olvidar
Pretendo realizar un trip hacia alta mar
Vivir mi vida allá, para interpretar solamente
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
Y la distancia no me pudo ayudar
Las fuerzas del inicio se agotan al final
Y quiero entender, me cuesta comprender
Que debo aceptar en vez de tratar de olvidar
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu u u u u u
Para tí no ha sido fácil, támpoco lo es para mí
El estar aquí,siempre recordándote
Aunque ya conmigo no estés, siempre te llevaré en mi corazón
Que esta recordándote
Algunos tratan de entender (algunos tratan de entender)
Y no descubren nada
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
Que acépte el destino
Todo cambio es para mejor
Otros creen que lo quiso dios
No hay excusas para el dolor
Y quiero ver o poder saber
Que donde tú estés te encuentres bien
Cierro mis ojos y pienso en ti
Para que algín día vuelvas junto a mí
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu u u u u u
Para tí no ha sido fácil, támpoco lo es para mí
El estar aquí,siempre recordándote
Aunque ya conmigo no estés, siempre te llevaré en mi corazón
Que esta recordándote
Algunos tratan de entender (algunos tratan de entender)
Y no descubren nada en que creer
Algunos mueren por amor
Los derrotó el dolor
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
U u u uuuuuu
No trates de entender lo que pasó ayer
No existe explicación
Uuuuu u u uuuuuu u u u u u
