lagrimas negras
Omara Portuondo & Martin Rojas Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Aunque tú me has echado en el abandono
Aunque tú has muerto todas mis ilusiones
En vez de maldecirte con justo encono
En mis sueños te colmo
En mis sueños te colmo
De bendiciones

Sufro la inmensa pena de tu extravío
Siento el dolor profundo de tu partida
Y lloro sin que sepas que el llanto mío
Tiene lágrimas negras
Tiene lágrimas negras
Como mi vida

Tiene lágrimas negras
Tiene lágrimas negras
Como mi vida

Aunque tú me has echado en el abandono
Aunque tú has muerto todas mis ilusiones
En vez de maldecirte con justo encono
En mis sueños te colmo
En mis sueños te colmo
De bendiciones

Sufro la inmensa pena de tu extravío
Siento el dolor profundo de tu partida
Y lloro sin que sepas que el llanto mío
Tiene lágrimas negras
Tiene lágrimas negras
Como mi vida

Tú me quieres dejar
Yo no quiero sufrir
Contigo me voy mi santa
Aunque me cueste morir

Tú me quieres dejar
Yo no quiero sufrir
Contigo me voy mi santo
Aunque me cueste morir

Tú me quieres dejar
Yo no quiero sufrir
Tú me quieres dejar
Yo no quiero sufrir
Contigo me voy mi santa
Aunque me cueste morir

Ay, tú me quieres dejar
Yo no quiero sufrir




Contigo me voy mi santa
Aunque me cueste morir
