Sabor de Traicion
Rigo Tovar Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ahora recuerdo
Aquellas promesas
Que una vez me hiciste
Temblando de amor

Abrazos y besos
Suspiros, caricias
Que tanto me diste
Recuerdo tan bien

Y al verte en los brazos
Y que no son los míos
Recuerdo promesas
De tus desvaríos

Y al verte en los brazos
Y que no son los míos
Recuerdo promesas
De tus desvaríos

Ahora recuerdo
Temblaste al decirlo
Y yo muy confiado
Te di el corazón

Pusiste tus labios
Sobre de los míos




Y en ellos dejaste
Sabor de traición
