Blues a un amigo
El Cruce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Siempre es grato recordar
A un amigo que se va
Todo lo que construimos
Y los sueños que cumplimos
Ojala estuvieras hoy
Para cantarte este blues
Es dificil no notarlo
Cuando no estas tu

Quedate un rato más
Es temprano aún
Y mañana no hay que trabajar

Te aseguro estaras bien
Volveremos a reir
Si de vez en vez nos reunimos
Conversamos y tomamos un buen vino
Tu tendrás tu profesión
Nosotros tocaremos rock
Y cada vez que nos veamos
Cantaremos esta canción

Tomate un trago más
Es temprano aún
Y mañana no hay que madrugar

Sabes siempre en la vida
Mucha gente conocemos
Y mucha se olvida
Pero tú eres especial
Tú eres especial
Sabes que si alguna vez
Necesitas alguien con quien conversar
Nunca dudes en llamarnos
No te vamos a olvidar

[Solo]

Sabes siempre en la vida
Mucha gente conocemos
Y mucha se olvida
Pero tú eres especial
Tú eres especial
Sabes que si alguna vez
Necesitas alguien con quien conversar




Nunca dudes en llamarnos
No te vamos a olvidar
