Saliendo a dar la vuelta en madrugada
La luna sola y fuerte sobre mí
Has entendido todo sobre amar
Me siento tan distinto y solo te he perdido
Tantas veces has sentido más de lo que crees
Te he mirado a mi lado con las luces alumbrando
Tus ojos me hicieron entender
Esta noche se acabó, ver tu rostro me rompió
Sentí un temor ardiendo dentro
Y me dijiste "escúchame, mi amor"
Esta noche se acabó, lo sentiste tú también
Dijimos tantas cosas que hasta ahora pude comprender
Esta noche fue
Esta noche fue la última vez que te besé
Esta noche fue
Esta noche fue la última vez que te besé
Entre el cielo oscuro te miraba y no entendía lo que pasaba
Ya no te iba a ver jamás
Hermosa lluvia de verano, creo que te he mentido tanto
Pues te quiero ir a buscar
Esta noche se acabó, ver tu rostro me rompió
Sentí un temor ardiendo dentro
Y me dijiste "escúchame, mi amor"
Esta noche se acabó, lo sentiste tú también
Dijimos tantas cosas que hasta ahora pude comprender
Esta noche fue
Esta noche fue la última vez que te besé
Esta noche fue
Esta noche fue la última vez que te besé
Entre el cielo oscuro te miraba
Y no entendía lo que pasaba
Ya no te iba a ver jamás
