Muchacha Ojos De Papel

Fito Paez · Moda Y Pueblo [2007]

Muchacha, ojos de papel,

adónde vas,

quédate hasta el alba.

Muchacha, pequeños pies,

no corras más,

quédate hasta el alba.

Sueña un sueño despacito

entre mis manos,

hasta que por la ventana suba el sol.



Muchacha, piel de rayón,

no corras más,

tu tiempo es hoy.

Y no hables más, muchacha,

corazón de tiza,

cuando todo duerma, te robaré un color.



Muchacha voz de gorrión,

adónde vas,

quédate hasta el día.

Muchacha, pechos de miel,

no corras más,

quédate hasta el día.



Duerme un poco y yo entretanto construiré

un castillo con tu vientre hasta que el sol,

muchacha, te haga reír hasta llorar...
