Carmela
Los Fabulosos Cadillacs · Rey Azucar [2008]
Cuando tu quieres
Es tan fácil Perder
Toda Razón.
Cuando, los días pasan
y sigues, sin poder ver
Porque grande es la mentira
Y tanto lo que temer
Salta Carmela
Que el barco va a naufragar
Salta Carmela
Que el cielo puede esperar
Es tan fácil subir
Cuando tu quieres
Es tan fácil pedir
una razón
Cuando tu ojos brillan
y sigues sin contestar
Porque buscas una salida
y te vuelves a equivocar
Salta Carmela
Que el barco va a naufragar
Salta Carmela
Que el cielo puede esperar
Y si tus ojos brillan, me puedes encandilar,
Tu me puedes ver matar...
Salta... ... ...
