Y estar lejos me hace daño Siempre espero el día siguiente Solo quiero detenerme Estar lejo’ me enamora Es la vida la que llora Estar lejos hoy me ofende. Estar lejos me hace daño sin ti Estar siempre a tu lado es mi fin Voy buscando el día primero Recordar bien lo que quiero Y encontrarte entre mis cuentos No voy a olvidar , que te he escrito mas de doce canciones No voy a olvidar, que te llevo siempre en mis oraciones No voy a olvidar, que eres todo lo que quiero decir y el Olvido ya no es parte de mi Que estar lejos me hace daño hasta fin, pero lejos estoy Cerca de ti. Estar lejos me hace daño sin ti Estar siempre a tu lado es mi fin Voy buscando el día primero Recordar bien lo que quiero Y encontrarte entre mis cuentos No voy a olvidar , que te he escrito mas de doce canciones No voy a olvidar, que te llevo siempre en mis oraciones No voy a olvidar, que eres todo lo que quiero decir y el Olvido ya no es parte de mi Que estar lejos me hace daño hasta el fin, pero lejos Estoy cerca de ti. Cada paso que doy adelante es una mirada atrás, te olvido Perdóname si te hecho al olvido Te olvido
