Dulce Amor (Sweet Love) lyrics

Song information

Artist: Gloria Estefan
Album: Abriendo Puertas

Lyrics

This danceable and contagious grove is the combination of three styles of latin music; colobian cumbia, colombian vallenato, and the cuban son. the begining verses are more cuban son groove, the choruses and accordian solo are more vallenato, and the bridges have the cumbia taste
"Dulce amor" (sweet love) is a very metaphorical and surrealistic approach to a very sweet and romantic message of love dedicated to the person who captured your heart

Todas las noches cuando miro al cielo
Every night when I look to the sky

Brillan tus ojos como dos luceros
Your eyes sparkle as two bright stars

Ojos tan puros como el agua clara
Eyes as pure as clear water

Que calma las heridas
That it calmes the wounds

De mi pobre coraz?
Of my poor heart

Te llevo anclado a mi pensamiento
I carry you locked in my thoughts

Paloma blanca que de el amor
White dove of love

Amor que riega las ilusi?es
Love that spinkles the imagination

Como arroyito en el alma
Like a little stream in the soul

Aurora fresca de la ma?na
Fresh dawn of the morning

Tibia caricia, rayo de sol
Steaking rays of sunlight
