Te Vi
Shaila Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sos la armonía con distorsión
para una vida hecha canción
la bebé que conocí
la mujer que descubrí

sos la sonrisa que desnudó
una mirada que me entregó
esa infancia que perdí
que ya había dejado ir
y te vi cantar mientras sonaba olvidado aquel viejo cassette
de los Ramones que escuchábamos de chicos
cuando veranear era nadar buscando el atardecer
robándole al mar risas que el cielo fundía en tu piel al pronunciar...

Yo soy el que te mira y te agradece a vos,
lo bueno y malo, todo lo que somos
toda una vida juntos siempre dos,
un par que a dúo va de a dos

vos sos el odio con el amor
la confidencia que me acusó
sos mi sangre y entendí
que no sos igual a mí

cada recuerdo de lo que soy
lleva impregnado tu nombre
y hoy si tuviera que elegir
te diría que te vi
En ese jazz que papá nos tarareaba a la hora del té
o en la tortura a un insecto o bichito




o no te acordas cuando nos daba miedo la oscuridad?
y el juego era pelear con tu cabeza debajo de mis pies para gritar...
