Ojala Que Te Vaya Bonito
Claudia De Colombia Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ojalá que te vaya bonito
Ojalá que se acaben tus penas
Que te digan que yo ya no existo
Que conozcas personas más buenas

Que te den lo que no pude darte
Aunque yo te haya dado de todo
Nunca más volveré a molestarte

Te adoré, te perdí, ya ni modo

Cuantas cosas quedaron prendidas
Hasta dentro del fondo de mi alma
Cuantas luces dejaste encendidas
Yo no sé cómo voy a apagarlas

Ojalá que mi amor no te duela
Y te olvides de mi para siempre
Que se llenen de sangre tus venas
Y te vista la vida de suerte

Yo no sé si tu ausencia me mate
Aunque tengo mi pecho de acero
Pero nadie me llame cobarde
Sin saber hasta donde la quiero

Cuantas cosas quedaron prendidas
Hasta dentro del fondo de mi alma
Cuantas luces dejaste encendidas
Yo no sé cómo voy a apagarlas

Ojalá que te vaya bonito
