Dame (Roger Zayas y Mariela Mercado)
Juan Luis Guerra · Mudanza y Acarreo [1895]
Dame de tu vida más
dame lo que quieras dar
dame, no quiero perder
el calor de tu cariño
para renacer, uh...
Por que yo te quiero tanto
sin ti mi vida es llanto...
Dame, oh, dame; de tu boca más
dame lo que quieras dar
dame la oportunidad
déjame sentir tu cuerpo
hasta madrugar, uh...
Por que yo te quiero tanto sin ti mi vida es llanto...
Dame de tu vida más
dame lo que quieras dar
dame lo que hay en ti
quiero que me quieras, negro
quiero mas de ti, uh...
Por que yo te quiero tanto
sin ti mi vida es llanto..
