río abajo corre el agua
rio abajo, rumbo al mar
desde el puente
veo el agua del río pasar y pasar
miro abajo y río
de (al) verme pensar :
que yo soy el agua
y tu la ley de gravedad
la vida es larga y yo voy a seguir
camino de tus brazos
si el río corre, no puede más que ir
río abajo
río abajo, y vamos,
que la vida es un tobogán
duele menos soltar la baranda
y dejarse llevar
como el agua del río
camino del mar (que miro al pensar :)
yo soy de hierro
cuando tu eres un imán
el agua da rodeos y al fin termina
siempre por abrirse paso
vendrás ,tarde o temprano hasta mí,
yo sé,
yo soy tu mar y tu vas río abajo(que soy)
