Before he graduated from Jorge Tadeo Lozano's University with a publicist degree, singer/songwriter Carlos Vives joined different bands and participated in several plays. In 1982, the artist got a role in the Colombian TV series Tiempo Sin Huella, starting his successful acting career, later extending his professional skills to the Puerto Rican television. After forming a band called La Provincia, the singer and guitarist began performing a local style known as Vallenato, successfully touring his native country and South America. In 1994, Carlos Vives' "La Gota Fria," became his first smash, climbing on the most important music charts around Latin America. In 1996, under the slogan of Unete A Los Locales (Join the Local Ones), the talented musician created his own label, called Gaira, to promote and give an incentive to local artists.

Que yo tengo una herida muy honda que me duele
Que yo tengo una herida muy grande que me mata (bis)
Un hombre as mejor se muere
Ay, para ver si al fin descansa (bis)
Yo me puse a escribir una carta para ti
La romp porque no iba a tener contestacin
Me queda el recuerdo de tu amor

Ay, ay, ay, ay me estoy muriendo
Ay, ay, ay,ay, tengo un dolor (bis)
Como tu sabes que te quiero
Por eso te vales de ocasin (bis)
Solamente me queda el recuerdo de tu voz
Como el ave que canta en la selva y no se ve (bis)
Con ese recuerdo vivo yo
Con ese recuerdo morir (bis 2)
Ay, ay, ay, ay me estoy muriendo
Ay, ay, ay, ay tengo un dolor
Como tu sabes que te quiero
Por eso te vales de ocasin (bis)
