Sin Ella
Jose Gaviria Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Poco a poco me olvido que ya tu no estas
sigue aquí escondido el perfume de tu piel
te siento por los pasillos, qué maldita soledad
el eco del vacío no me deja olvidar

Voy sanando la herida que dejó tu desamor
recogiendo mi vida paso a paso, lentamente
buscando una salida, qué se yo,
perdido en la ironía de no tener tu amor

* Sigo sin ella, mi alma incompleta
sintiendo que todo gira al revés
me pierdo sin ella, me hundo en la espera
queriendo que el tiempo pase de una vez

Como ser diferente si pudiera volver
a tenerte en mis brazos como la primera vez
si sólo hubiera podido, yo te juro lo intente
me ahogo en la agonía de no poderte ver

* Sigo sin ella, mi alma incompleta
queriendo que todo gire al revés
me pierdo sin ella, me hundo en la espera
queriendo que el tiempo pase de una vez

Y muero por ella, mi alma en dos se partió
quedándome solo

Sigo sin ella… aún tengo que aceptar

* Que sigo sin ella, mi alma incompleta
sintiendo que todo gira al revés
me pierdo sin ella, me hundo en la espera
queriendo que el tiempo pase de una vez





Sin ella, mi mundo cambió quedándome solo
