3. “Cien años” Lyrics
Pasaste a mi lado
Con gran indiferencia
Tus ojos ni siquiera
Voltearon hacia mí

Te vi sin que me vieras
Te hablé sin que me oyeras
Y toda mi amargura
Se ahogó dentro de mí



Me duele hasta la vida
Saber que me olvidaste
Pensar que ni desprecios
Merezca, yo, de ti

Y, sin embargo, sigues
Unida a mi existencia
Y si vivo cien años
Cien años, pienso en ti
