Ella
Senor Bachata Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hola, quisiera decirte mi amigo
Una chica ha aliviado este frío, de mi corazón
Sabes, me duele decirte que he visto
La chica que sale contigo, una ves fue mi amor
¿Como?
Sabes, ella es toda mi vida, tal ves no es la misma, debe ser un error
Ella, es una experta asesina robando tus sueños y matando mi amor
(Dónde estás)

Me siento culpable por la forma en confíame, dándole mi amor
(Dónde estás)
No ves que le da lo mismo, dejarte en un abismo, amar es su temor
(Dónde estás)
Me siento culpable por la forma en confiarme, dandole mi amor
(Dónde estás)
No ves que le da lo mismo, dejarte en un abismo, amar es su temor
Bachata mi niña
Desde la diamante récord
Soto, señor bachata
Son los corazones latinos
Porque el amor se llama contraste
Ella, ella es toda mi vida, tal ves no es la misma, puede ser un error
Ella es una experta asesina, robando tus sueños y matando mi amor
(Dónde estás)
Me siento culpable por la forma en confíame, dandole mi amor
No ves que la da lo mismo, dejarte en un abismo, amar es su temor
(Dónde estás)
Me siento culpable, por la forma en confiarme, dandole mi amor
(Dónde estás)
No ves que la da lo mismo, dejarte en un abismo, amar es su temor
(Dónde estás)
Me siento culpable, por la forma en confiarme, dandole mi amor

(Dónde estás)
No ves que le da lo mismo, dejarte en un abismo, amar es su temor
