Volver
Odio París Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Correr al horizonte, dejarte atrás
Escapar donde las cosas son fáciles
Dejar de creer en nada, nada más
Ves desde lejos que me escondo otra vez
Yo no soy ese que quería ser
A lo mejor es que no te quiero volver a ver
A veces tengo ganas de volver
Volver a esa luz que dejé atrás
Escapar donde las cosas son fáciles
Dejar de creer en nada, nada más
