Silueta de una Araña
caroline cruz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
su luz quedó envuelta en un pañuelo
salté y te alcancé
ahora hay razón
Vivimos conmovidos por la tormenta
somos tan desdichados
la muerte ya no afecta
ahora hay razón
Y hasta el mar
muerde los pies
Desorganiza
el origen
El sol se fue despacio de mi lado
la bruma deja la silueta de una araña
salté y te alcancé
ahora hay razón.
