Fuego
Juan Rivas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

No debería escribirte, pero tus ojos
Me hacen suspirar.
De donde saliste, que en un instante,
Me fui a enamorar.

Es un sueño, entre ambos.
Luna de arena, que nos marca.

Coro
Somos fuego y leña,
De fogatas junto al mar.
Jugamos entre estrellas,
Soñamos con no despertar.
Pero hasta que amanezca,
Me dedicaré a cantar,
c nuestra historia fresca,
c nuestro amor sin final.

Me he metido en problemas,
Mas no tan grandes como tu corazón.
Eres simple y perfecta,
Con tus lunares y sonrisa de flor.

Contigo a mi lado, todo es sueño.
En noches frías, juntos no hay miedo.

Coro
Somos fuego y leña,
De fogatas junto al mar.
Bailamos entre estrellas,
Y la luna es nuestro altar.
Un eterno verano,
Es nuestra noche sin sol.
Nos reímos, soñamos
Con no decirnos adiós.

Somos fuego y leña,
De fogatas junto al mar.
Bailamos entre estrellas,
Y la luna es nuestro altar.
Un eterno verano,
Es nuestra noche sin sol.
Nos reímos, soñamos
Con no decirnos adiós.

Oh, si el viento arrulla...
Oh, si el sol se anuncia...

Dormiré hasta sentir el mar...
Junto a ti
