Me salvas
David Bustamante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
me señala el camino de regreso hasta el dolor.
La soledad me esperará al llegar,
y en un adiós mi corazón se perderá.
Vuelvo a empezar por el final,
al recordar que ya no estás,
vuelvo a ver perdida la confianza en mi,
hasta olvidarme de quien soy.
Vuelvo a oír tu voz diciendo aquí estoy yo…
Me salvas.
Pienso en el ayer que dejé perder,
y en la promesa eterna, que nunca pudo ser,
sin fuerzas ya, no sé luchar,
no hay razón,
mi voluntad ya se rindió,
me abandonó.
Vuelvo a empezar por el final,
a recordar que ya no estás,
vuelvo a ver perdida la confianza en mi,
vuelvo a encerrarme en mi interior,
hasta olvidarme de quien soy.
Vuelvo a oír tu voz diciendo aquí estoy yo…
¡Y me salvas!
Sin ninguna condición, me salvas,
sin condenas por mi error, me salvas,
sólo por ti revivo.
Vuelvo a empezar por el final,
a recordar que ya no estás,
vuelvo a ver perdida la confianza en mi,
vuelvo a encerrarme en mi interior,
hasta olvidarme de quien soy.
Vuelvo a oír tu voz diciendo aquí estoy yo.
¡Y me salvas!
