Cariño Mio
Paloma San Basilio Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sé que estas pensado que te soy infiel
Que te estoy mintiendo por primera vez.
Cariño mio, porque ocultarlo
Porque decirlo, que debo hacer.

Sé que sí lo niego no me creeras
Y si te lo cuento me abandonaras.
Cariño mio, te tengo miedo
Que no es un juego, es mucho más.

Cariño mio, no sé que hacer
Seguir callada y seguir con él.
O ser sincera y serte fiel
Cariño mio ya no sé que hacer.

Pienses lo que pienses lo voy a negar
De que serviria torturarnos mas.
Tú eres mi alma, él es mi cuerpo
Cariño mio, de verdad lo siento.
Pude no engañarte pero sucedió
De que serviria pedirte perdon.
Él es el viento y tú mi puerto
A ti te quiero, por él me muero.





Cariño mio, no se que hacer... (x 3)
