Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo pensaba que todo era rodar y rodar
Yo pensaba que no se me iba a acabar
Yo pensaba que
Yo pensaba que todo era jugar y jugar
Yo pensaba que no habia que trabajar
Para conseguir la felicidad

Y hoy me doy cuenta que

Tenia muy poca edad
Y que las cosas que realmente valen
Cuestan mas
Y que el tiempo que se pierde no regresa ya

Estrofa 2:
Yo pensaba que todo era reir y gozar
Yo pensaba que todo era felicidad
Yo pesaba que
Yo pensaba que todo era jugar y jugar

Yo pensabaque no habia que trabajar
Para consegir la felicidad
