Hilda / Nunca Podrán / Alma de Mi Alma
Eva Ayllón Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Pues lo que quieren es separate de mi
Se que te han dicho que no soy libre,
Que soy humano tengo un pasado
Me guta el juego y la bebida
Tu bien lo sabes eso es mentira.
Nunca hagas caso cuando te hablen de mi
Asi es el mundo hay gente mala
Que solo trata de hacernos daño
Soy tu cariño tu eres mi vida
Pero apartarnos solo el señor.
Por mas que quieran separarnos
Por mas que busquen alejarnos
Sera dificil que lo logren
Por que mi amor esta a tu nombre
Si algunas veces he mentido
Y en otras pocas he bebido
Quien en la vida no ha sufrido
Por no ser correspondido
