Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú me gustas mucho, lo juro por Dios
Vente a mi ladito que seremos dos
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Ya cierro los ojos y hago la ilusión
De estar pegadita a tu corazón
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Te quiero amorcito, te quiero por Dios
Pero si me engañas, yo te parto en dos
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me arrebato yo soy por demás
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
Tú no me conoces lo que soy capaz
Cuando me enamoro yo soy por demás.
