Payaso
Elsa Y Elmar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Y me voy
Porque tú ya no me quieres
Porque la única salida estaba escondida en donde entre
Y no voy
A estar tan sola en mi lucha
El universo me escucha
y me manda señales que no quiero ver
Y no se qué gané, no sé qué gané
Me duele tanto el amor
Me duelte tanto el amor
Me duele tanto el amor
Me duele tanto
Si tú no das yo no doy
Si te me vas ya no estoy
Me duele tanto tu amor
Me duele tanto
Dicen que
Hay que aprender a entregarse
Tal vez no supe quererte
Me quedo encerrada en mi corazón
Y no sé qué gané, no sé qué gané
Me duele tanto el amor
Me duele tanto el amor
Me duele tanto el amor
Me duele tanto
Si tú no das yo no doy
Si te me vas ya no estoy
Me duele tanto tu amor
Me duele tanto
Y no sé qué gané, no sé qué gané
Me duele tanto
Me duele tanto




Me duele tanto
Me duele, me duele, me duele, me duele, me
