El Puente Roto
Diana Reyes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Te abrazaba yo en el puente
Nos quizimos de un jalon
Y en las tardes tan serenas
Por las verdes arboledas
Me robaste el corazon
Ya no supe donde andabas
Y todito se acabo
Para el colmo de mi suerte
Fue creciendo la corriente
Y hasta el puente se rompio
El puente roto le llamo yo
A tu carino que se rajo
Asi dejaste mi corazon
Hecho pedasos con tu traicion
Ahora tu en el puente roto
Abrazada con el otro
Ni te acuerdas de mi amor
Porque asi son las mujeres
Cuando el hombre mas las quiere
Siempre pagan con traicion
El puente roto le llamo yo
A tu carino que se rajo
Asi dejaste mi corazon
Hecho pedasos con tu traicion
Ahora tu en el puente roto
Abrazada con el otro
Ni te acuerdas de mi amor
Por que asi son las mujeres
Cuando el hombre mas las quiere
Siempre pagan con traicion
The lyrics of "El Puente Roto" by Diana Reyes portray a story of love and heartbreak.
