Cuando te vi por primera vez
Aquel momento no puedo olvidar
Cuanto te vi por primera vez
Aquel momento no puedo olvidar
Y me la paso pensando en ti
Sin olvidar tu manera de mirar
Y me la paso pensando en ti
Yolanda, sabes que te quiero
Yolanda, y por ti me muero
Yolanda, sabes que te quiero
Yolanda, y me desespero
Y solo espero que me digas que si
Para no vivir desesperado
Y solo espero que me digas que si
Para no vivir desesperado
Porque en un tiempo me hiciste tan feliz
Las pocas horas que pasé a tu lado
Porque en un tiempo me hiciste tan feliz
Las pocas horas que pasé a tu lado
Yolanda, sabes que te quiero
Yolanda, y por ti me muero
Yolanda, sabes que te quiero
Yolanda, y me desespero
Y solo espero que me digas que si
Para no vivir desesperado
Y solo espero que me digas que si
Para no vivir desesperado
Porque en un tiempo me hiciste tan feliz
Las pocas horas que pasé a tu lado
Porque en un tiempo me hiciste tan feliz
Las pocas horas que pasé a tu lado
Yolanda, sabes que te quiero
Yolanda, y por ti me muero
Yolanda, sabes que te quiero
Yolanda, y me desespero
