Agujerito del cielo Cuelando el brillo de Dios Un rayo cayó en tus ojo' Y me partió el corazón Agujerito del cielo Díctame por dónde ir Para yo no equivocarme Y así ver mi porvenir When you're done with me I see a negative space What you've done for me You need to lose some day Who needs to pray? Who needs balance? I'll see you every day Barefoot in the park You start rubbing off on me Barefoot in the park You start rubbing off on me Ya tengo to' lo que quiero Ya no puedo pedir má' Cuando te tengo a mi la'o Lo pasa'o se queda atrá' Si estas faltando en mi era Y te tuviera encontrar Hasta yo te encontraría Como el río va a la mar Barefoot in the park You start rubbing off on me Barefoot in the park You start rubbing off on me Silence starts turning off between Sky's looking up I think I call off the chase Who needs balance? I'll see you everyday Barefoot in the park You start rubbing off on me Barefoot in the park You start rubbing off on me
