lo nuestro es algo mas que una aventura
nacio de una mirada con ternura
y fue creciendo hasta este gran amor.

yo se que cuenado falto tu me extrañas
que sueñas con vivir cada mañana

dejemos de portarnos como niños
tratando de ocultar nuestro cariño
gritemos la verdad de nuestro amor.

FINGIENDO ANTE LA GENTE COMO AMIGOS
GRITEMOS LA VERDAD DE NUESTRO AMOR.
