Camino
Tomates Fritos Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hace 12 años que me fui, fui a buscar otros caminos me di cuenta que en el mío no todo estaba bien
igual de pie seguí dejé a todos mis amigos
solo el alma está conmigo.

Muy bien, estoy muy bien
la soledad es parte de mí ser.

Muchas veces quise regresar y olvidarme del camino

y olvidarme del destino y no lo pude hacer
no pude abandonar al silencio que es mi amigo cuando callo esta conmigo

Muy bien, estoy muy bien,
la soledad es parte de mi ser
Muy bien, estoy muy bien,
la soledad, soledad
Muy bien, estoy muy bien,
la soledad es parte de mi ser
Muy bien, estoy muy bien,

la soledad
En mi camino la sembré y en mi camino la encontré
