Sálvame
Inma Serrano Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sálvame
De la angustia de la vida,
Esta depresión, por las cosas
Cuando marchan como hoy,
También, de los miedos
Tan segura como estoy.

Sálvame,

Marcha todo tan perfecto
Que no puede ayer
Ni llorar, ni lamentarme
Y he podido ver
Mi futuro, necesita de tu ayer.

Sálvame
Si mi voz aún te acaricia
Como lo hizo ayer
Lo valiente que me siento
Al mostrarte lo que siento
Los huecos que tu tapas
Que sin ti yo no soy nadie.

Tú, tienes las llaves de mi cárcel,
Tú, sólo deseo secuestrarte
Tú, para cerrar así los ojos
Tú, por los tuyos veo todo.

Sálvame
La cordura es peligrosa
Yo lo siento así,
Lentamente te desnuda
Y te deja ver.

Lo valiente que me siento
Al mostrarte lo que siento

Los huecos que tu tapas
Que sin ti yo no soy nadie.
