Laughing Flower
I'm a crab and I'm on the move
Just because of you, just because of you, just because of you
And when I'm with you I want to like
And when I'm a little closer I want to love you
And then leave you aside like the flower I had in my hand
And the one I forgot on the sidewalk just because
Just because you don't know how to come back to me
Oh laughing flower!
I'll keep moving until I find you
I promise my love, I'll regenerate
Oh laughing flower!
I won't make mistakes inside a caritó
Oh laughing flower, don't leave me alone
I'm a crab and I want to like
While I'm a little closer I want to love you
And I think you don't know what that is
And if you do, at least you can pretend
And instead of falling into your hands, I'd prefer your arms
And in my arms, I'll take you like a flower
To my hut by the river, my love!
Oh laughing flower!
I'll keep moving until I find you
I promise my love, I'll regenerate
Oh laughing flower!
I won't make mistakes inside a caritó
Oh laughing flower, don't leave me alone
