tango
Javiera & Los Imposibles Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Te creo y cierro los ojos
Y pongo la fe en remojo
Como endulzarte el paso
Si me recojo en pedazos
Para llenarte entero
Pido prestado y debo
No entiendo como y cuando
volví a cero

Mareo y más mareo
Me abrazas y te rodeo
Mareo y más mareo
No hay agua solo el cielo
Un dedo en el enchufe
Un clavo de agua fría

Más que un abrir de ojos
Empújame a la vía
