Amor Prohibido
Enigma Norteño Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Me gustas tanto que me da miedo perderte
Sé que tengo un defecto y que no soy perfecto
Y vernos escondidas no es lo correcto
Tenerte es un placer y es que sin ti me muero
No creas que exagero yo soy el primero
Que te quiere bien aunque no sea soltero

Y es un "Amor Prohibido" el que vivo yo contigo

Y ante toda la gente aparentamos ser amigos
Es un amor prohibido pero de ti vivo enamorado
Es un amor prohibido porque mi defecto
Es ser casado

(Y aunque sea en secreto
Te quiero de aquí hasta el cielo mi amor
Y puro Enigma Norteño)

Secreto entre tú y yo pero es amor del bueno
Una experiencia hermosa pero peligrosa
Todo marcha bien cuando no está mi esposa

Y es un "Amor Prohibido" el que vivo yo contigo
Y ante toda la gente aparentamos ser amigos
Es un amor prohibido pero de ti vivo enamorado
Es un amor prohibido porque mi defecto
Es ser casado

Y es un "Amor Prohibido" el que vivo yo contigo
Y ante toda la gente aparentamos ser amigos
Es un amor prohibido pero de ti vivo enamorado

Es un amor prohibido porque mi defecto
Es ser casado
