Una razón me parte el corazón
y me está rompiendo el alma
una duda de amor.
Quiero saber
que te ocurre desde ayer
cuando viste a aquel amigo
el color de tu cara cambió
y una lagrima como una espina
a mi me clavó.
Tú me has hecho tal como soy
y hasta el día de hoy creo en tí
tú con tu manera de ser
me has enseñado a querer así.
Tu mi eterna inspiración
si me dejaras podría morir
qué quieres que haga y lo haré
no concibo la vida sin ti.
Cariño mio
en la puerta hay un claver
y un sobre a tu nombre
con amor, dice el papel
estoy que me muero de los celos
de rabia, voy a enloquecer
y aún así, no te quiero perder.
Tú me has hecho tal como soy
y hasta el día de hoy creo en ti
tú con tu manera de ser
me has enseñado a querer así.
Tú mi eterna inspiración
si me dejaras podría morir
qué quieres que haga y lo haré
no concibo la vida sin ti. (bis)
