Gordo Lyrics
Gordo by Camilo
Estaba en mi celular, ¿no?
Y dije "¿Qué hay de mi exnovia, parce?"
Que no sabía de ella hace mucho rato
Bueno, tiene un novio nuevo, normal
La última foto que subió era con él
Pero cuando vi el caption, me mató
Ya vi que le dices "Gordo"
Como antes me decías
Me dolió más de lo que imaginaba
Esa palabra era mía
No pensé que me doliera
Algo que no me dolía
Me di cuenta que te extraño
Y que no lo sabía
Perdona si te estoy amando mucho
Perdona si te estoy queriendo tanto
Después de verte tan contenta
Se me está rompiendo algo
Perdona si te estoy celando mucho
Pero es que te estoy extrañando tanto
Aunque sonríes en las fotos
Tienes el corazón roto
Me duele ver que te conformas
Con un gordo que me imita
Nadie sabe lo que tiene entre las manos
Hasta que alguien se lo quita
Yo soy el original
Creo que el amor de tu vida
Ay, no vas a poder hacerte
Una fotocopia mía
Yo no sé si es a propósito
O si es cosa del destino
Que estés con alguien igualito a mí
Pero no conmigo
Perdona si te estoy amando mucho
Perdona si te estoy queriendo tanto
Después de verte tan contenta
Se me está rompiendo algo
Perdona si te estoy celando mucho
Pero es que te estoy extrañando tanto
Aunque sonríes en las fotos
Tienes el corazón roto
Me duele ver que te conformas
Con un gordo que me imita
Nadie sabe lo que tiene entre las manos
Hasta que alguien se lo quita
Hasta que alguien se lo quita, yea
Es que te estoy amando mucho
Y te estoy queriendo tanto
Ay, tanto, que no lo puedo controlar
Mi mundo paró de girar
Es que te estoy amando mucho
Y te estoy queriendo tanto
El mundo gira, aunque no estés
Y yo no puedo dejar de pensarte, mujer
Es que te estoy amando mucho
Y te estoy queriendo tanto
Para bien o para mal, tal vez uno similar
Pero nunca el original
Me duele ver que te conformas
Con un gordo que me imita
Nadie sabe lo que tiene entre las manos
Hasta que alguien se lo quita
