Siempre me pasa igual
cuando me levanto
esperando a que no este
por ahi.
Y me miro al espejo
y ahi estoy yo,
me encontre con un hombre
me puse a hablar.
Le vendi mi pedazo
de tierra lunar.
Y llovia del cielo
sobre arboles y mares.
Y llovia las plantas
crecer como animales.
Veintiocho dias navegue
por la orilla de un rio
todas las horas del dia
sin descansar.
Cruce el desierto, la selva
y bosque de montaña
pero el cansado rio
me dijo, basta ya.
(Se repite)
Y llovia...
Porque siempre llueve
cuando me levanto.
Siempre me pasa igual
cuando me levanto
esperando a que no este
por ahi.
Y me miro al espejo
y ahi estoy yo,
me encontre con un hombre
me puse a hablar.
Le vendi mi pedazo
de tierra lunar.
Y llovia del cielo
sobre arboles y mares.
Y llovia las plantas
crecer como animales.
Veintiocho dias navegue
por la orilla de un rio
todas las horas del dia
sin descansar.
Cruce el desierto, la selva
y bosque de montaña
pero el cansado rio
me dijo, basta ya.
(Se repite)
Y llovia...
Porque siempre llueve
cuando me levanto.
