Perdoname
David Bustamante Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Si alguna noche me la pase lejos de ti
Si grito cuando yo debo callar
Si huyo cuando tú me necesitas más
Perdóname
Cuando te digo que no te quiero ya
Son palabras que nunca sentí
Perdóname (bis x5)
Si hay algo que quiero eres tú
Perdóname
Si los celos te han dañado alguna vez
Si alguna noche la pasé lejos de ti
En otros brazos, otro cuerpo y otra piel
Perdóname
Si no soy quien tú te mereces
Si no valgo el dolor que has pagado
Por mí a veces
Perdóname (bis x5)
Si hay algo que quiero eres tú
Perdóname
Y no busques un motivo ni un por qué
Simplemente yo me equivoqué
Perdóname
Perdóname (bis x5)
Si hay algo que quiero eres tú
Perdóname
