(dime, por fin, qué sientes)
Ahora que estamos separados
Dime, por fin, sinceramente
Si ya me has olvidado
(fue mi ambición tenerte)
Para siempre a mi lado
Mas preferí, preferí perderte
Porque te has obstinado
(si vives escondida de tu propio corazón)
(por ti lo siento)
Demuéstrate a ti mismo la verdad
Aunque te cause sufrimientos
Dime, por fin, qué sientes
Ahora que estamos separados
Dime, por fin, sinceramente
Si ya me has olvidado
(si vives escondida de tu propio corazón)
(por ti lo siento)
Demuéstrate a ti mismo la verdad
Aunque te cause sufrimiento
Dime, por fin, qué sientes
Ahora que estamos separados
Dime, por fin, sinceramente
Si ya me has olvidado
(si ya me has olvidado)
Si ya me has olvidado
