Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
En el momento en que la noche muere
Cuando se asoma la sonrisa blanca
En la mañana de mi adversidad
Quiero volver a revivir la noche
Porque la vieja luna volverá
Ella es quien sabe donde está mi amor
Vieja luna que en la noche va
Quiero volver a revivir la noche
Porque la vieja luna volverá
Ella es quien sabe donde está mi amor
Ella sabe si es que lo perdí
Vieja luna que en la noche va
