Hay un amor que me hace bien, en esta vida
Tarde o temprano encontraré, la llave y su guarida
Nunca he deja de creer, en lo que añoro
Siempre en mi sueño está de pie, es mi tesoro
Hay un amor que ha sido fiel, que no me olvida
Me lo merezco y le daré, lo que me pida
Una señal ha de caer, después le abrazaré

Sin miedo y sin medida
Me quemas, te puedo presentir
Mis venas, jamás van a mentir
Ya suenas, me acecha tu mirada
No temas, ni tardes en venir
Las dudas, no deben existir
Son siglos enteros que llevo buscando tu cara

Elena, Elena, porqué te llamas Elena
Porqué será que tú vas alegrando mis penas
Me alejas del miedo y de toda condena
Y empiezo a entender lo que vale la pena
Cosita divina, cosita más buena
Yo sé que estés en donde estés, vendrás un día
Y bailará mi corazón, al ritmo que le pidas

Nunca he deja de creer, en lo que añoro
Siempre en mi sueño está de pie, es mi tesoro
Hay un amor que ha sido fiel, que no me olvida
Me lo merezco y le daré, lo que me pida
Una señal ha de caer, después le abrazaré
Sin miedo y sin medida
Me quemas, te puedo presentir

Mis venas, jamás van a mentir
Ya suenas, me acecha tu mirada
No temas, ni tardes en venir
Las dudas, no deben existir
Son siglos enteros que llevo buscando tu cara
Son siglos enteros que llevo buscando tu cara

Me quemas, te puedo presentir
Mis venas, jamás van a mentir
Ya suenas, me acecha tu mirada
No temas, ni tardes en venir
Las dudas, no deben existir
Son siglos enteros que llevo buscando tu cara

Buscando tu cara, buscándote a ti
Elena
