José María Napoleón Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
buscando amores que aller perdiste
vuelves buscando tiempos
que en otros tiempos fueron felices
vuelves con la corriente
porque no allaste rio como el mio
pero soy rio creciente y en otros mares yo me vacio
cuando estan mis manos recojiendo amor y tu eres pasado
vuelves a mi jimiendo y llorando
queriendo encontrar un beso en mis labios
lo tuviste y lo perdiste eres en mi vida recuerdo apagado
Vuelves y abrazas mi cuerpo cuando esta mi cuerpo de amor entregado
no vas a encontrar respuesta sonriendo me espera la mujer que amo
yo no soy amor de un dia yo soy completo y tu lo sabias
dejame secar tu llanto no cura nada ya no hay heridas
Vuelves a mi
cuando estan mis manos recojiendo amor y tu eres pasado
vuelves a mi jimiendo y llorando
queriendo encontrar un beso en mis labios
lo tuviste y lo perdiste eres en mi vida recuerdo apagado
lo tuviste y lo perdiste eres en mi vida recuerdo apagado
lo tuviste y lo perdiste eres en mi vida recuerdo apagado.
