TE EXTRAÑO

     Te extraño,      Como la lluvia en verano      Te extraño,      Como el sol en el invierno.      Si estuvieras aquí      Y escuchar tu voz dulce llamándome,      Tu voz dulce susurrándome,       "Te amo".      Los días se hacen eternos      Preguntándome cuándo vendrás,      Las horas pasan lentas      Aumentando mi agonía      Sólo tu recuerdo me sustenta,      Sólo me queda creer      Que te veré en este amanecer      Que te veré en este amanecer,      Vida mía      Vida mía...
