Pasastes a mi lado Con gran indiferencia Tus ojos ni siquiera Voltearon hacia mañana Te vi sin que me vieras Te hablé sin que me oyeras Y toda mi amargura Se ahogo dentro de mí Me duele, hasta la vida Pensar que me olvidaste Saber que ni desprecio Merezca yo de ti Y sin embargo, sigues Unido a mi existencia Y si vivo cien años Cien años pienso en ti
