promise
Charlie Chan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He perdido el balance por tu amor,
En tus manos yo caí, tienes control sobre mi
Tu cuerpo es la cárcel y yo un prisionero
Y jamás quiero salir, condenado soy feliz.

Try to keep my balance but I still fall
But how'd I fall so hard
Right into your arms, I swear girl
Wrapped inside you baby and it's so warm
Love without a cause
Leaves me trapped inside my own bars

Quiero ser tuyo enterito pero tengo miedo
Prométeme que no me vas a dejar sin tu amor

I'll give you my heart girl but you got to promise (prométame mami)

Promise you'll hold me (hold me)touch me (touch me)
Love me, way past forever

Yo tan joven padesco del corazón,
Y por tu amor sufriría mil años y con mucho honor

I'm trying to be calm but my chest keeps pounding
Try to swim but it's like i'm drowning
All I've come for is love, oh baby

Quiero ser tuyo enterito pero tengo miedo
Prométeme que no me vas a dejar sin tu amor

I'll give you my heart girl but you got to promise (prométame mami)

Promise you'll hold me (hold me)touch me (touch me)
Love me, way past forever

You need this in your life, two kings, revolutionary

Temo que me dejes en el abandono
Y tue eres mi oxigeno y mi todo

But I realize yes,
Worth running a race, when the finish line is you

Quiero ser tuyo enterito pero tengo miedo
Prometeme que no me vas a dejar sin tu amor

If give you my heart girl but you got to promise (promise that you'll love me baby)
Promise you'll hold me, (hold me) touch me, (touch me)
Love me (love me) way past forever





Quiero ser tuyo enterito pero tengo miedo
Prometeme que no me vas a dejar sin tu amor
