Ojalá No Crecieras
Garzón y Collazos
I Wish You Wouldn't Grow Up
How little time ago I rocked you in my arms
When you illuminated that dawn
With the first cry that cheered your eyes
And gave my life a reason to be
You didn't know then that this tender cry
Is only the first and the least bitter
Of those that destiny makes us shed
How little time ago I rocked you in my arms
When you illuminated that dawn
With the first cry that cheered your eyes
And gave my life a reason to be
You didn't know then that this tender cry
Is only the first and the least bitter
Of those that destiny makes us shed
How much I would give so you wouldn't grow up
So your sweet childhood would be eternal
So the smile on your lips
Would never know so many disappointments that taste like bile
How much I would give so you wouldn't grow up
To see you always like this, with your tranquility
So the hope that lights up your life
Would last forever and you would never know what old age is like
How much I would give so you wouldn't grow up
To see you always like this, with your tranquility
So the hope that lights up your life
Would last forever and you would never know what old age is like
