Gavilan O Paloma
Jose Jose · Vol. 2-Serie Platino 20 Exitos [1997]
Completamente bella y sensual
Algo me arrastro hacia ti como una ola
Y fui y te dije hola que tal
Esa noche entre tus brazos caí en la trampa
Casaste al aprendiz de seductor
Y me diste de comer sobre tu palma
Haciéndome tu humilde servidor
Amiga hay que ver como es el amor
Que vuelve a quien lo toma gavilán o paloma
Pobre tonto ingenuo charlatán
Que fui paloma por querer ser gavilán
Amiga hay que ver como es el amor
Que vuelve a quien lo toma gavilán o paloma
Fui bajando lentamente tu vestido
Y tu no me dejaste ni hablar
Solamente suspirabas te necesito
Abrázame mas fuerte mas
Al mirarte me sentí desengañado
Solo me dio frío tu calor
Lentamente te solté de entre mis brazos
Y dije estate quieta por favor
Amiga hay que ver como es el amor
Que vuelve a quien lo toma gavilán o paloma
Pobre tonto ingenuo charlatán
Que fui paloma por querer ser gavilán
