COLOR
LETRA: Ángel T. Cruz
Un rayo de luz atraviesa mi ciudad.
El río se apaga, parece un mal sueño común para todos.
El cielo oscurece y veo tus ojos y siento que me observan,
creo que vuelvo a vivir si pienso en ti.
Recuerdo las noches en vela, hablando contigo,
sentía un cálido resoplo de esperanza.

Soñar es bonito toda la noche, si no recuerdo nada
puedo convertirme en corazón destrozado,
en alma negra o gitano me siento al viento y se que me rodea,
creo que vuelvo a vivir si pienso en ti.
Recuerdo las noches en vela, hablando contigo,
sentía un cálido resoplo de esperanza.
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de tus ojos, no hagas una estupidez mas.
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de las sombras y mi vida no apagarás.
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de tus ojos, no digas una barbaridad.
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de las sombras, mi tierra todo te lo hará pagar.
Recuerdo que la noche es larga y acabará conmigo,
sentía un cálido resoplo de que...
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de tus ojos, no hagas una estupidez mas.
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de las sombras, y mi vida no apagarás.

Mi piel no va cambiar al color de tus ojos, no digas una barbaridad,
Mi piel no va a cambiar al color de las sombras, mi tierra todo te lo hará cambiar.
