Las penas se van y vuelven a estar ancladas en un mar
Que suele callar tus lagrimas, tu devocion
Un pez que vence todo su temor
Para vivir, para existir
Y descubrirse cada dia mas
Intenta amar un trozo de ese mar
Inunda mi paz la inmensidad de esta verdad
No impedira que pueda nadar
Dentro de ti para sentir
Y descubrirte cada dia mas
Necesito tu calor
Necesito tu amor
El tiempo se va muy lejos atras
Y ahora estoy y tambien soy
El hombre que busca una razon
Para vivir, para decir
Que hoy te quiero cada dia mas
Necesito tu calor
Necesito tu amor
Y ahora que no estoy fallando
Siento que me estas matando
Necesito tu calor
Y ahora que te estoy amando
Nuestro amor se esta enfriando
Necesito tu calor
Y ahora que no estoy fallando
Siento que me estas matando
