Me Cuesta Tanto Olvidarte

Mecano · Esencial Mecano [2013]

Entre el cielo y el suelo hay algo

con tendencia a quedarse calvo de

tanto recordar



Y ese algo que soy yo mismo

es un cuadro de bifrontismo que

solo da una faz



La cara vista es un anuncio de signal

La cara oculta es la resulta

de mi idea genial de echarte

Me cuesta tanto olvidarte

Me cuesta tanto...



Olvidarte me cuesta tanto

olvidar quince mil encantos es

mucha sensatez



Y no se si sere sensato

lo que se es que me cuesta un rato hacer

cosas sin querer



Y aunque fui yo quien decidio que ya no mas

Y no me canse de jurarte

que no habra segunda parte

Me cuesta tanto olvidarte

Me cuesta tanto olvidarte

Me cuesta tanto...



Y aunque fui yo quien decidio que ya no mas

Y no me canse de jurarte

que no habra segunda parte

Me cuesta tanto olvidarte

Me cuesta tanto olvidarte

Me cuesta tanto olvidarte

Me cuesta tanto...

Me Cuesta Tanto Olvidarte
