Teresa
Miguel & Berny Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

La vi tomar su maleta
Luego doblo por el callejón
Ella quedo en la puerta,
Implurandole perdón

Era una joven pareja,
No eran casados, pero había amor
El le llamaba Teresa, lechuga
Y ella le decia Carlos, mi bombón

Que cosa Teresa, que tenie la vida
Tan facil perdiste su amor
Ahora te quedas tan sola y vacía,
Quien podra calmar tu dolor

El gran sueño de Teresa
Fue ser actriz, y el un gran pintor
Si ella ensañaba una escena (desnuda)
Carlos pintaba su cuerpo en un rincón
Y ella fue actriz de tercera,
Mientras que Carlos aprendiste pintar
Y en cada cuadro pintado,
Su amor por ella siempre dibujo

Y quien crería, bendita Teresa
Que tu acabarias ese amor
Ahora te quedas tan sola y vacia
Quien podra calmar tu dolor

Te amo.
Pero Teresa, no se lo merece

Viendo la telenovela,
Un día teresa desespero
Y empezo no ser tan buena
Cuando en su mente algo cruzo
Y se vistio de ramera,
Busco unos lentes que no eran para el sol
Y se fue a ensayar su escena, desnuda
Fue complaciente con su director

Ahora teresa, entiendes la vida
No basta con perdir perdon
Si fuiste teresa, su actriz preferida
Porque el no fue, tu pintor Tomado de AlbumCancionYLetra.com




Haaaaayy teresa
Porque el no fue tu pintor
