Naci para esto

Gustavo Cerati · Siempre Es Hoy [2002]

Pensandolo bien

se que siempre supe

el desenlace



me pase la vida

imaginandote

no es momento para

ser cobarde



Posare mis manos

sanare toda llaga de distancia

lo terrible del mar

es morir de sed



La lluvia cae

cambia los paisajes

de humo y viento



Borro el viejo mapa

de catástrofes

nuestros besos suenan

verdaderos



Aun te sorprende

el ruido del mundo

desaparece

ya no hay vacio



yo segui a la estrella mas voraz

nunca me llevo tan lejos

para que creer en el azar?

yo naci para esto

yo naci para esto

yo naci para esto

Naci para esto
