Luna Del Rio
Nelson Y Sus Estrellas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anduvimos, miramos
Y todos vimos que estabas llorando
Luna del rio triste canta
Al fin tu siempre terminas amando

Tu sonrisa, tu mirada
Te dieron una corona de vida
Yo quisiera encontrarte
Y darte un nuevo amancecer cantando

Vences para siempre lo triste del error
Dura para nada lo amargo del dolor




Luna del rio, flor del rio
Temor de pena tú me das olvido
