Mi Tesoro Lyrics by Ramón Ayala
Nada me importa, cuando me besas de todo me olvido
Cuando no miro tus lindos ojos es un martirio
Si tu supieras cuando te tengo entre mis brazos
Mucho disfruto de tus caricias y tus encantos
Nada me importa lo que me digan
Si yo te quiero, si yo te adoro
Por eso grito a todo el mundo que tu eres mi tesoro
Si tu supieras cuando te tengo entre mis brazos
Mucho disfruto de tus caricias y tus encantos
Nada me importa lo que me digan
Si yo te quiero, si yo te adoro
Por eso grito a todo el mundo que tu eres mi tesoro
Que tu eres mi tesoro
English Version of Mi Tesoro Lyrics by Ramón Ayala
Nothing matters
When you kiss me I forget everything
When I don’t look at your pretty eyes
It is a martyrdom
If you knew when I have you
In my arms
I really enjoy your caresses
And your charms
I don’t care what they tell me
If I love you, if I adore you
That’s why l’m yelling at everyone
That you are my treasure
If you knew when I have you
In my arms
I really enjoy your caresses
And your charms
I don’t care what you tell me If
I love you, if I adore you
That’s why l’m yelling at everyone
That you are my treasure
That you are my treasure
Mi Tesoro Lyrics by Cornelio Reyna

Mucho disfruto de tus caricias y tus encantos
Nada me importa lo que me digan
Si yo te quiero, si yo te adoro
Por eso grito a todo el mundo
Que tu eres mi tesoro
Si tu supieras cuando te tengo entre mis brazos
Mucho disfruto de tus caricias y tus encantos
Nada me importa lo que me digan
Si yo te quiero, si yo te adoro
Por eso grito a todo el mundo
Que tu eres mi tesoro
Si tu supieras cuando te tengo entre mis brazos
Mucho disfruto de tus caricias y tus encantos
Nada me importa lo que me digan
Si yo te quiero, si yo te adoro
Por eso grito a todo el mundo
Que tu eres mi tesoro
Que tu eres mi tesoro
