Cuídate, amor mío, cuídate
El tiempo que yo no estaré contigo
Duerme bien, amor mío, duerme bien
Y no olvides que podrás soñar conmigo
Abrázame, amor mío, abrázame
Llego la triste hora del viaje
Háblame, amor mío, háblame
Que quiero que tu voz sea mi equipaje

Bésame, amor mío bésame
La lluvia del adiós moja tu cara
Y tierna sonrisa en tu mirada
Amor mío, amor mío

Bésame, amor mío bésame
La lluvia del adiós moja tu cara

Cuídate, no te olvides, cuídate
Que el día que yo vuelva estés hermosa
Escríbeme, cada día escríbeme
Y cuéntame sus sueños y tus cosas
Háblame, no me llores y háblame
Y piensa que los días pronto pasan
Yo no se, que decirte, yo no se
Mi voz también se ahoga en mi garganta

Bésame, amor mío bésame
La lluvia del adiós moja tu cara
