Si Tú Te Vas
Los Melódicos Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Si tu te vas, si tu te vas,
Mi corazón se morirási tu te vas
Eres vida mia todo lo que tengo
El mar que me baña, la luz que me guia
Eres la morada que habito
Y si tu te vas ya no me queda nada
Si tu te vas.
Eres la montaña que busca mi cuerpo
El rio en la noche, primavera e invierno
Eres lo que sueño despierto,
Y si tu te vas ya no me queda nada
Eres vida mia, el trigo que siembro,
Todo lo que pienso,
Mi vos, mi alegria,
Eres lo que añoro y anhelo
Y si tu te vas ya no me queda nada
Si tu te vas
Eres vida mia, todo mi alimento,
La historia que rima si estas en mis versos
Eres la cobija, mi aliento
Y si tu te vas ya no me queda nada
Hay no
No se vida mia cambia todo
Si tu te vas,
El sol no me calienta ni modo
Si tu te vas,
El día me parece más oscuro
Si tu te vasEres vida mia todo lo que tengo
El mar que me baña, la luz que me guia
Eres la morada que habito
Y si tu te vas ya no me queda nada
Si tu te vas.
Eres la montaña que busca mi cuerpo
El rio en la noche, primavera e invierno
Eres lo que sueño despierto,
Y si tu te vas ya no me queda nada
No se vida mia cambia todo
Si tu te vas,
El sol no me calienta ni modo
Si tu te vas,




El día me parece más oscuro
Si tu te vas
