Contigo Aprendi
Susana Zabaleta y Armando Manzanero Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
que existen nuevas y mejores emociones
Contigo aprendí
a conocer un mundo nuevo de ilusiones
aprendí
que la semana tiene mas de siete días
a hacer mayores mis contadas alegrías
y a ser dichoso yo contigo lo aprendi
a ver la luz del otro lado de la luna
Contigo aprendí
que tu presencia no la cambio por ninguna
aprendí
que puede un beso ser mas dulce y mas profundo
que puedo irme mañana mismo de este mundo
las cosas buenas ya contigo las viví
Contigo aprendí
que yo nací el día en que te conocí
