Original Lyrics of DESVELADO by Bobby Pulido
Verso 1
¿Será fe que yo encontré una voz de ternura?
Que me llena de placer cuando la oigo hablar
Con ella me enamoré aunque nunca la conocí
Sueño en su querer y en sus brazos quiero dormir
Pre-Coro
Escucho cada día la radio, seguro que la vuelvo a oír
Por el cielo busco mi estrella, a la luna quiero subir
Coro
Voy desvelado
Por estas calles esperando encontrar
A esa voz de ángel que quiero amar
¿Dónde andará?
Voy desvelado
Y mi deseo no me deja descansar
Porque despierto y no me pongo a llorar
Yo seguiré desvelado y sin amor
Interludio Instrumental

DESVELADO English Lyrics by Bobby Pulido
Verse
Could it be that I’ve found a tender voice
That fills me with pleasure When I hear her speak
I fell in love with her even though I never knew her
I dream of her love and I want to sleep in her arms
Pre-Chorus
I listen to the radio every day, I’m sure I’ll hear it again
I search for my star in the sky, I want to climb to the moon
Chorus
I walk awake
Through these streets hoping to find
That angel’s voice that I want to love
Where could it be?
I walk awake
And my desire doesn’t let me rest
Because I wake up and don’t cry
I’ll remain awake and without love
Instrumental Interlude
