POR QUE TE VAS
Marquess Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hoy en mi ventana brilla el sol
Y el corazón
Se pone triste
Contemplando la ciudad
Porque te vas

Como cada noche desperté
Pensando en ti
Y en mi reloj todas las horas vi pasar
Porque te vas

Todas las promesas de mi amor
Se irán contigo
Me olvidarás, me olividarás
Junto a la estación hoy
Lloraré igual que un niño

Por qué te vas
Por qué te vas
Por qué te vas
Por qué te vas
Por qué te vas

Bajo la penumbra de un farol
Se dormirán
Todas las cosas
Que quedaron por decir
Se dormirán

Junto a las manillas de un reloj
Esperarán
Todas las horas
Que quedaron por vivir
Esperarán




Todas las promesas de mi amor
Se irán contigo
