Madrugada
Los Aptos Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
En tus bellos ojos y cuando tú te fuiste
Me dejaste triste
No sé lo que pasó la última vez que te vi
Y dijiste que me amabas, pero yo sentí
Que tú me mentías
Y no estando a mi lado yo siento el dolor
De no tenerte
Me di cuenta con mis amigos que andabas con
Otro todo el tiempo, cuando a mí me decías amor
No sé qué yo hice para merecer esto y
Cómo puede ser que alguien como tú
Haga tanto mal
Perdí mi confianza
Las noches frías a mí no me dejan en paz
Porque no estás a mi lado aquí en mi cama
Y yo te necesito
Son las cinco de la mañana y no puedo
Dormir porque tú sigues aquí en mis pensamientos
No sé qué yo hago
Y yo solo quería darte todo mi amor
Pero tú solo pensabas en entregarme dolor
No sé qué yo hice para merecer esto y
Cómo puede ser que alguien como tú
Haga tanto mal
Perdí mi confianza
