Now I'm moving away from the purity I knew and I

-

fell in love with what I had lost, I had

-

you, but you'll never be with me

-

Now I am happy from the bottom of my heart

-

Never again will I settle for just anywhere; somewhere,

-

somewhere out there, there must be a place for me where they love me and don't

-

make me cry

-

Somewhere full of light, where I don't feel

-

so much pain

-

No, nothing for me, where they love me and don't

-

make me

-

A place of light where my senses

-

feel so much pain

-

[Music]

-

Now is a good time for what we're living through

-

Trying to forget

-

There won't be any for me

-

Where they love me and don't make me cry

-

A place full of light where I don't feel

-

so much pain

-

No place to hold me, where they

-

love me and don't make me cry

-

A place full of light where they don't feel

-

so much pain

-

[Música]

ahora me alejo de castidad conocí y me

enamoré de que había perdido tenía

conmigo nunca estarás

ahora me alegro de corazón

nunca me pague a cualquier lugar algún

lugar habrá para mí que me quieran y no

me hagan llorar

algún lugar lleno de luz pero sienta

tanto dolor

no nada para mí donde me quieran y no me

hagan

el lugar quiero de luz donde mis tiendas

que tanto dolor

[Música]

ahora es un buen momento que vivimos

tratar de olvidar

ninguna habrá para mí

donde me quieran y no me hagan llorar

al lugar lleno de luz donde me sientan

tanto dolor

sin lugar a abrazar a mí donde me

quieran y no me hagan llorar

un lugar lleno de luz donde no sientan

gas tanto dolor
