Por Ultima Vez

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ven aquí cerca de mí
Frente a frente me dirás te quiero
Por última vez
Mis caricias tú tendrás
Y a si comprenderás que no mentí
Por última vez
A sentir el mismo amor
Que llevo dentro
Este amor tan grande
Cruz de mi delirio
Oyes cruel martirio
Por quererte tanto con el corazón
Por última vez
Ven aquí cerca de mí
A sentir el mismo amor
Que llevo dentro
Este amor tan grande
Cruz de mi delirio
Oyes cruel martirio
Por quererte tanto con el corazón
