Ilegales Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
muy adentro muy en mi
y mi alma llora, llora
No se como te perdi
como te deje ir de aqui
me he quedado solo, solo
y quien diria que por tu amor
yo me perderia
triste, solo y sin tu amor
y quien diria
que por tu amor yo me perderia
que por tu amor enloqueceria
triste, solo y sin tu amor
y te necesito amor
vuelve a mi corazón
quitame este dolor
que no puedo soportar
te necesito hoy
tu eres mi salvación
quitame el mal sabor
de esta triste soledad
oh,
(hablado)oh amor ya no puedo mas
te necesito regresa...
Tu recuerdo duele amor
me consumo en el dolor
y mi alma llora, llora
no se como te perdi
y como te deje ir de aqui
me he quedado solo, solo
y quien diria que por tu amor
yo me perderia
que por tu amor yo me moriria
triste solo y sin tu amor
y quien diria
que por tu amor yo enloqueceria
que por tu amor yo me moriria
triste solo y sin tu amor
oh no, no
te necesito amor
vuleve a mi corazón
quitame este dolor
que no puedo soportar
te necesito hoy tu eres mi salvación
quitame el mal sabor de esta triste soledad
te necesito amor, vuelve a mi corazon
salvame del dolor, que no puedo soportar
tu recuerdo vive en mi
no se como te perdi
tu recuerdo duele... mmm
