Como Eres
OV7 Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Digo si, dices no
Y no acaba la discusión oh no
Y aunque pides que nunca me vaya
Dices primero adiós
Ríes, lloras todo al mismo tiempo
Y caminas contra el viento
Y a pesar de que poco te entiendo
No cambiaría nada en ti

Si al mirar
Tus ojos me inundan como el mar
Eres mi libertad, (Eres mi libertad)
Mi sueño y vida
Y nadie más
Me llena de bella intimidad
Quiero vivir en ti
Tu mi principio y fin
Lluvia de fuego
Te amo como eres hasta el fin

Dices tú, digo yo
Y me pides el corazón, mmm
Pero cuando me acerco te escapas
Dime cual es, (Dime cual es), mi error
Cuentas el final siempre primero
Para ti no existe el tiempo
(No sé qué hacer)
A pesar de que eres un misterio
No cambiaría nada en ti

Si al mirar
Tus ojos me inundan como el mar
Luz en mi oscuridad
(Luz en mi oscuridad)
Mi sueño y vida
Y nadie más
Me llena el espíritu de paz
Quiero vivir en ti
Tu mi principio y fin
Lluvia de fuego
Te amo como siempre hasta el fin

¡Oh no!
Hasta el fin

However, even in this more positive view, there is some sense of mystery and confusion: "A pesar de que eres un misterio, no cambiaría nada en ti."
