La ilusión
Smitten Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mi vida es tan extraña, algo nuevo pasó
Algo inesperado, no entiendo qué pasó
Yo sé que la vida tiene cosas extrañas
Que algunas son buenas y otras son malas

Puede pasar, suele pasar, no sé si estoy bien
No sé si estoy mal, pero sé que en mi mente puedo confiar
Puedo confiar, tengo algo guardado
Aquí dentro de mí, un amor enjaulado

Esperando por ti, yo sé que la vida

Aveces te golpea y no hay que perder de ninguna manera
Tu amor, la ilusión
