Marc Anthony Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No siento nada, mi mundo se ha ido
Vuelve a mis sueños y sueña conmigo
En que tu alma es mi único amigo
Que se devuelva el tiempo y quiera
El universo que todos los caminos
Te conduzcan hacia mí
Por que yo, quiero vivir solo por ti
Quiero borrar lo que no fui, quiero vivir dentro de ti
Amándote hasta olvidarme de mí
Y quiero dar lo que no di, hasta que vuelva
A verte sonreír, oh, para mí, junto a mí
Quiero llenarte de amor infinito
Quiero que quieras, quedarte conmigo
Yo creo en tu palabras, yo se que estaba errado
Y espero que algún día llegue el tiempo de los dos
Yo Quiero vivir, solo por ti
Quiero olvidar lo que no di, oh, oh no
Lo que no di, lo que no di
Lo que no di, lo que no di, lo que no di
