Puedo no roncar por las mañana
Puedo trabajar de sol a sol
Puedo subirme hasta el Himalaya
O batirme con mi espada
Para no perder tu amor

Puedo ser, tu fiel, chófer, mujer
Todo lo que te imaginas puedo ser
Y es que por tu amor volvía a nacer
Tu fuiste la respiración
Y era tan grande la ilusión
Pero si te vas que voy a hacer
Planchar de nuevo el corazón
Se pone triste esta canción

Quiero casarme contigo
Quedarme a tu lado
Ser el bendecido con tu amor
Por eso yo quiero
Dejar mi pasado
Que vengas conmigo
Morirme en tus brazos dulce amor
Por eso yo quiero

Puedo boxear en las olimpiadas
Puedo mendigar por tu perdón
Puedo mudarme a la Castellana
Agua fría por las mañanas
Y alinear en el Unión

Puedo ser, tu fiel, chófer, mujer
Todo lo que te imaginas puedo ser
Y es que por tu amor volvía a nacer
Tu fuiste la respiración
Y era tan grande la ilusión
Pero si te vas que voy a hacer
Planchar de nuevo el corazón
Se pone triste esta canción

Quiero casarme contigo
Quedarme a tu lado
Ser el bendecido con tu amor
Por eso yo quiero
Dejar mi pasado
Que vengas conmigo
Morirme en tus brazos dulce amor
Por eso yo quiero

Quiero casarme contigo
Quedarme a tu lado
Ser el bendecido con tu amor
Por eso yo quiero
Dejar mi pasado
Que vengas conmigo
Morirme en tus brazos dulce amor

Puedo boxear en las olimpiadas
Puedo trabajar de sol a sol
Puedo tantas cosas en mi vida
Por tu amor
