Procuro Olvidarte
Siguiendo la ruta de un pajaro herido
Procuro Alejarme

De aquellos lugares donde nos quisimos
Me enrredo en amores, sin ganas ni fuerzas por ver si te olvido
Y llega la noche y de nuevo comprendo que te necesito

Procuro Olvidarte
Haciendo en el da mil cosas distintas
Procuro Olvidarte

Pisando y Contando las hojas caidas
Procuro Cansarme
LLegar a la noche apenas sin vida
Y al ver nuestra casa tan sola y callada no se lo que hara

Lo que hara, por que estuvieras tu, por que siguieras tu conmigo
Lo que hara, por no sentirme as, por no vivir as, perdido
Lo que hara, por que estuvieras tu, por que siguieras tu conmigo
Lo que hara, por no sentirme as, por no vivir as, perdido

Procuro Olvidarte
Siguiendo la ruta de un pajaro herido
Procuro Alejarme

Me enrredo en amores, sin ganas ni fuerzas por ver si te olvido
Y llega la noche y de nuevo comprendo que te necesito

Procuro Olvidarte
Haciendo en el da mil cosas distintas
Procuro Olvidarte

Pisando y Contando las hojas caidas
Procuro Cansarme
LLegar a la noche apenas sin vida

Lo que hara, por no sentirme as, por no vivir as, perdido
Lo que hara, por que
