Condenado
El Coyote Y Su Banda Tierra Santa Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Te vengo a devolver aquellos besos
Que aquella noche loca te robe
Jamás en lo que llevo de existencia
Con nada que sea ajeno me quede

Te vengo a devolver aquellos besos
Haber si así logro dormir mejor
Jamás me acostumbre a robarle a nadie

Y menos en terrenos del amor

Si no eran para mi, te los regreso
En la cárcel del amor
Ahora estoy preso
Condenado por intentar robarte el corazón

Yo quiero devolver aquellos besos
Haber si así logro dormir mejor
Jamás me acostumbre a robarle a nadie
Y menos en terrenos del amor

Si no eran para mi, te los regreso
En la cárcel del amor
Ahora estoy preso

Condenado por intentar robarte el corazón
Condenado por intentar robarte el corazón
