Somos novios
Pues los dos sentimos
Mutuo amor profundo
Y con eso ya ganamos
Lo mas grande de este mundo

Nos amamos
Nos besamos como novios
Nos deseamos
Y hasta a veces
Sin motivos, sin razón
Nos enojamos

Somos novios
Mantenemos un cariño
Limpio y puro
Como todos
Procuramos el momento
Mas oscuro

Para hablarnos, para darnos
El mas dulce de los besos
Recordar de que color
Son los cerezos
Sin hacer mas comentarios
Somos novios
