Open Your Mind
Tavo Bárcenas Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby
Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby

Abre la mente que el mundo es diferente
El ambiente se siente caliente ya ves
Sientes que entra de la cabeza a los pies

Uum tómatelo con calma y no lo hagas al revés
No pelies y rechaza el stress
Peace and love es mi nota esta vez
Y es un tema de gran interés
Si si si sisisi
Mírala bien trátala bien que vida solo hay una
Y hay que vivirla muy bien
(Vamos a relajarnos)
Mira el ritmo esta en tu cuerpo
(Vamos a relajarnos)
Todo el mundo está bailando
(Vamos a relajarnos)
Que eso es lo que estoy sintiendo

Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby
Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby

Y esto va para aquel que se estresa
Come Down tomate una cerveza
Porque la fiesta esta que apenas empieza
Que te digo yo, que te digo yo
(Y la fiesta a qué horas empieza)
Si la fiesta ya comenzó
(Y la fiesta a qué horas empieza)
Si la fiesta ya comenzó

Mira esa muchacha como mueve las caderas
(Jey, jey, jeyjeyey)
Mira esa muchacha como mueve las caderas
(Jey, jey, jeyjeyey)
Que mira esa muchacha como mueve las caderas
(Jey, jey, jeyjeyey)
Mira esa muchacha como mueve las caderas
(Jey, jey, jeyjeyey)

Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby
Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby

Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby

Open your mind and close your eyes
Open your mind and close your eyes; baby
