Lyrics Como el ave solitaria Alberto Cortez

 800

Como el ave solitaria


Como el ave solitaria
yo nací para cantar,
es para mi la aventura
como una fruta madura
que me gusta saborear.
Hace tiempo solté amarras
con el mundo familiar.
Me fui volviendo cigarra
por culpa de una guitarra
y amor a la libertad.

Me gusta ir volando bajo
para cantarle a destajo
al viento, al cielo y al mar.
De noche echarme en la huella
para contar las estrellas
y ver el alba llegar
Como el ave solitaria
yo nací para cantar.

A veces soy como un paria
a solas tengo que andar
Ah, lo que vale un amigo
cuando te ofrece el abrigo
cuando comparte su pan
Casi siempre es solidaria
el alma con la amistad
porque es ella quien valora
lo que cuesta cada hora
de constante soledad.

Me gusta ir volando bajo
para cantarle a destajo
al viento, al cielo y al mar.
De noche echarme en la huella
para contar las estrellas
y ver el alba llegar
Como el ave solitaria
yo nací para cantar.

Sé muy bien que es necesaria
la rama donde anidar.
Mi canto en un atropello
se enredó en unos cabellos
y no lo quise soltar.
Hasta el ave solitaria
también se deja atrapar.
En la cárcel de unos ojos
el amor echó cerrojos
y fuimos dos a cantar.

Me gusta ir volando bajo
para cantarle a destajo
al viento, al cielo y al mar.
De noche echarme en la huella
para contar las estrellas
y ver el alba llegar
Como el ave solitaria
yo nací para cantar.

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
