Lyrics & Translation
Discover the rich emotional landscape of "Mi Cómplice" by Cardenales De Nuevo León. This Norteño classic delves into the complexities of love that defies societal norms, offering a unique perspective on passion and loyalty that can deepen your appreciation for the genre.
People say it's a crime and a sin
I want them to know they're wrong
Because she's not my mistress or my love, she's something more
I must not have more than one love
They say I'm a candidate for hell
Let God decide, He's the one who allowed
What I feel here in my soul, and no one else
She's my accomplice, the partner of my dreams
My first breath upon waking
She's my accomplice, the fire of my logs
What we have is more than love
I must not have more than one love
People say it's a crime and a sin
I want them to know they're wrong
Because she's not my mistress or my love, she's something more
I must not have more than one love
They say I'm a candidate for hell
Let God decide, He's the one who allowed
What I feel here in my soul, and no one else
She's my accomplice, the partner of my dreams
My first breath upon waking
She's my accomplice, the fire of my logs
What we have is more than love
