Cuando Tenia Que Jugar
Belen Moreno
When I Had to Play
17 Springs
The ones her heart carried
A whole world of illusions
Lit up her face
Everything came crashing down on her
Or at least that's what she thought
When the news arrived
That she was pregnant
But you were brave
Because you ignored what people said
When you had to play
You swapped dolls for a real child
You had the courage to face reality
And your reward was being called mom
When you had to play
You swapped dolls for a real child
You had the courage to face reality
And your reward was being called mom
I don't know how you managed
To explain it to your parents
Because I know that nowadays
They're not like they used to be
That times have changed
That everything is different
No more listening to nonsense
About what people will say
But you were brave
Because you ignored what people said
When you had to play
You swapped dolls for a real child
You had the courage to face reality
And your reward was being called mom
When you had to play
You swapped dolls for a real child
You had the courage to face reality
And your reward was being called mom
I wouldn't want to tell you
That I always felt proud
I wish I were who I am
The most beautiful and most lovely
For being a mother and a companion
For being brave among the brave
I want you to listen to these lyrics
And what my soul feels
Ah! But you were brave
Because you ignored what people said
When you had to play
You swapped dolls for a real child
You had the courage to face reality
And your reward was being called mom
When you had to play
You swapped dolls for a real child
You had the courage to face reality
And your reward was being called mom
