Hacerte recordar
Jannette Chao Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Huye de mí, corre de aquí
disuélvete en el café
recíclate con el papel
amárrate manos y pies
y no voltees a este lado para ver
y no preguntes por mí, ya ni te acuerdes de mí
Que yo me encargaré de hacerte recordar
aunque me mientas que ya no me amas más
sabes que seguiré teniendo mi lugar
aunque te empeñes en dejar todo detrás.
Quema después lo que te escribí
o ponlo al fondo de un cajón
y guarda toda la pasión
bajo llave y a presión
y desdibuja mis manos de tu piel
aprende a despertar sin mí
y enséñate a fingir cuando todos te pregunten por mí.
