Lyrics
Yo no sé qué hacer contigo
Ni te tengo ni te olvido
Ni puedo seguir así
Juguete de tus caprichos
Para qué quererte tanto
Para qué tanto deseo
Para qué este loco amor
Que lo quiero y no lo quiero
Y es que ya me acostumbré
A tu forma de entregarte
Al calor que hay en tu piel
Y al placer de acariciarte
Cuando te sientes mujer
No hay cariño para darte
Cuando te sientes mujer
Qué daría por tener tus caricias
Cada día y poderte complacer
Cada vez que fueras mía
Qué daría por saber
Que jamás te perdería
No acierto a ver el camino
Que me separa de ti
No puedo seguir contigo
Ni puedo vivir sin ti
Qué daría por tener tus caricias
Cada día y poderte complacer
Cada vez que fueras mía
Qué daría por saber
Que jamás te perdería
No acierto a ver el camino
Que me separa de ti
No puedo seguir contigo
Ni puedo vivir sin ti
