Mi buhardilla six
Las Escarlatinas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Suelo dormir en mi buhardilla six
rodeada del color de otra época
suelo mirar a través del ventanal
redondo y especial
cuando espero verte
verte llegar a mi casa, verte llegar

Suelo soñar en mi buhardilla six

tropiezo sin parar con discos, libros y
miles de cosas que coleccioné
que nunca tiraré
y me encanta verte
verte llegar tan contento una vez más

Suelo escuchar vinilos demodé
hora tras hora con mis singles y LPs
no puedo hacer guateques ni cocktails
en mi buhardilla six
no hay apenas sitio
para uno más que nosotros
para uno más
para uno más que nosotros
para uno más

Suelo dormir en mi buhardilla six
Suelo mirar a través del ventanal

en mi buhardilla six
para uno más que nosotros
