Morena
Los Palmeras Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Morena,
Se que te estoy haciendo daño
Y esta matándome de pena a mi
Morena,
Pero es que sigo en cada lado
A ese recuerdo que no deja
No deja en paz mi corazón
No puedo olvidarla
No he podido no (por mas que busque así lo siento)
No puedo olvidarla
No he podido no

Morena,
Bajo tu abrigo yo he buscado
Matar de golpe su cariño, ay
Morena,
Perdóname si te lastimo
Pero no es hora que te mienta
Olvídame busca otro amor

No puedo olvidarla
No he podido no (por mas que busque así lo siento)
No puedo olvidarla
No he podido no

No puedo olvidarla
No quiero olvidarla
No voy a olvidarla
No pienso olvidarla no, no, no
Morena.

Y ahora que te lastimo
No tiene sentido
Busca otro cariño
Yo solo te rompo el corazón
Morena.

No puedo olvidarla
No quiero olvidarla
No voy a olvidarla
No pienso olvidarla no, no, no
Morena.

Y ahora que te lastimo
No tiene sentido
Busca otro cariño
Yo solo te rompo el corazón
Morena.

Ella vive dentro
Muy dentro de mi (y no lo puedo remediar)
Ella vive dentro
No quiere salir
No, no la voy a olvidar

No puedo olvidarla
No quiero olvidarla
No voy a olvidarla
No pienso olvidarla no, no, no
Morena.

Y ahora que te lastimo
No tiene sentido
Busca otro cariño




Yo solo te rompo el corazón
Morena.
