Ansiedad
Nicho Hinojosa Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
De tenerte en mis brazos
Musitando palabras de amor
Ansiedad
De sentir tus encantos
Y en la boca
Volverte a besar
Quizás este llorando
Al recordarte
Mis lagrimas son perlas
Que caen al mar
Y el eco adormecido
Desde lamento hace
Que estes presente
En mi soñar
Quizás estés llorando al recordarme
Y estreches mi retrato con frenecí
Y hasta tu oido llegue
La melodia salvaje
Y el eco de la pena
De estar sin ti
