Ven a mí niño
Merche Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tengo otro amor que esta pendiente de mi
Que brilla, brilla entre la gente
Si voy de marcha con amigos, solo quiero estar contigo
Salir al cine por Madrid, y no separarme de ti
Tal vez me estoy obsesionando
Y que es amor sin obsesión
Aunque me fuera de tu lado
Y volviera a se la que un día fui
Prefiero estar contigo y recordarlo
Ven a mi, mi niño, ven ami
Prometo ver pasar mi vida junto a ti
Estoy por ti, mi niño estoy por ti
Si es lo que quieres, no lo pienses ven a mi
A solo un mes de nuestro encuentro ya te llevo en mis adentros
En todo momento estas presente, siento que esto es diferente
No soy mujer de estar en casa, y esperar a ver que pasa
Esta vez es especial, si tu me extrañas, ya vendrás
Tal vez me estoy obsesionando
Y que es amor sin obsesión
Si es inventar a un príncipe encantado
Aunque me fuera de tu lado
Y volviera a se la que un día fui
Prefiero estar contigo y recordarlo
Ven a mi, mi niño, ven ami
Prometo ver pasar mi vida junto a ti
Estoy por ti, mi niño estoy por ti
Si es lo que quieres, no lo pienses ven a mi
