Por debajo de la mesa
Acaricio tu rodilla y bebo
Sorbo a sorbo tu mirada
Angelical y respiro de tu
Boca esa flor de maravilla
Las alondras del deseo
Cantan, vuelan, vienen, van

Y me muero por llevarte
Al rincón de mi guarida
En donde escondo un beso
Con matiz de una ilusión
Se nos va acabando el trago
Sin saber qué es lo que hago
Si contengo mis instintos
O jamás te dejo ir

Y es que no sabes lo que tu me
Haces sentir
Si tu pudieras un minuto
Estar en mi
Tal vez te fundirías
A esta hoguera de mi sangre
Y vivirías aquí y yo abrazado a ti

Y es que no sabes lo que tú
Me haces sentir
Que no hay momento que
Yo pueda estar sin ti
Me absorbes el espacio
Y despacio me haces tuyo
Muere el orgullo en mi
Y es que no puedo estar sin ti

Me absorbes el espacio
Y despacio me haces tuyo
Muere el orgullo en mi
Y es que no puedo estar sin ti
