Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Dimelo tu, dime que hago yo, con tanto amor y con
Tanta ilusión
Dimelo tu, dime que puedo hacer porque desde que me
Falta tu risa no soy el mismo de ayer

Dime que hago conmigo ahi si no soporto el castigo de
Tenerte lejos corazon, de perder el rumbo sin tu voz,
de aguantar los besos que llevo presos y toda esta pasión

Ahi dime que hago contigo ahiahiahiahi si se te olvida
Que existo, mientras yo te pienso más y más tu estas
Empeñada en olvidar dime tu que hago con tantas ganas
Y tanta soledad por eso dimelo tu dime que hago yo co
N tanto amor y con tanta ilusión (pero que dime que dime)

Dimelo tu, dime que puedo hacer porque desde que me
Falta tu risa no soy el mismo de ayer

Ahi dime que hago en las noches, ahiahiahiahi si en
Cada sueño te escondes siento que voy perdiendo la
Razon dimelo tu si tengo salvacion
siento que la vida se me termina y me mata este dolor por Eso dimelo
Tu, dime que hago yo con tanto amor y con tanta ilusión
Ahi pero que dime que dime, dimelo tu dime que puedo
Hacer porque desde que me falta tu risa no soy el mismo
De ayer.

Tal vez deba seguir adelante, darme otra oportunidad y
Comenzar de cero, quiero encontrar una razón pero me
Falta valor para emprender el vuelo

Dimelo tu, dime que hago yo con tanto amor y con tanta
Ilusión ahi pero que dime dimelo dimelo tu, dime que

Dimelo, porque desde que me falta tu risa no he podido
Ser feliz, dimelo, no soy el mismo de ayer
