Cuando Era Niño - En Vivo Monterrey, N. L / 2003

Cuando llega a mi nariz aquellos olores de infancia

O llegan a mi vida recuerdos,
Cuando aquel casete en blanco no estaba
Tan gastado con malas ideas,

Apenas éramos niños, se acuerdan?
Desgraciadamente vas creciendo y tu vida se va contaminando
Y si yo pudiera retroceder el tiempo
O si dios me permitiera elegir en qué momento
De mi vida estar en donde acabar;
Seguramente le pediría volver a ser niño,
Pero ya no se puede.

Me hubiese gustado seguir siendo niño
Ausente de todo sin ningún compromiso
Entonces la vida era mía
La tristeza no dolía
La sonrisa en un pequeño
Es el pan de cada día

Me hubiese gustado quedarme en un niño
Jugar al adulto pero no haber crecido
Soñar con la amiga de mi hermana
Que aunque mayor parecía
O mas bien me imaginaba
Que también yo le gustaba

Cuando era niño nada se me complicaba
Pensaba distinto
Era distinto
La vida no me cuestionaba
Cuando era niño nada me atemorizaba
Una caída era rutina
Dolía pero me levantaba
Cuando era niño...
Bendita niñez
Me hubiese gustado seguir siendo niño (como no.)
A pesar de la escuela y también de mi abuela
Que por sus sueños frustrados de ser peluquera
Me trasquilo la cabeza
Y en lugar de raya en medio
Fato parecía carretera

Cuando era niño nada se me complicaba
Pensaba distinto
Era distinto
La vida no me cuestionaba
Cuando era niño nada me atemorizaba
Una caída era rutina
Dolía pero me levantaba
Cuando era niño
Cuando era niño.
Cuando era niño.
Pero tuve que crecer, tuve que crecer

As a Boy - Live Monterrey, N. L / 2003

When the scents of childhood reach my nostrils

Or memories invade my life,
When that blank cassette was not
So worn from negative ideas,

We were just kids, remember?
Unfortunately you grow up and your life becomes contaminated
And if I could travel back in time
Or if God would allow me to choose which moment
Of my life to end up in;
I would surely wish to return to being a boy,
But that's not possible anymore.

I wish I could have stayed a child
Away from everything, with no obligations
Life was mine then
Sorrow didn't hurt
A smile on a little one
Was every day's sustenance

I wish I could have stayed a child
To play at being an adult, but without growing up
To dream of my sister's friend
Who, though older, it seemed
Or rather I imagined
That I also liked her

When I was a boy, nothing was difficult
I thought differently
I was different
Life didn't question me
When I was a boy, nothing terrified me
A fall was routine
It hurt, but I got up
When I was a boy...
Blessed childhood
I wish I could have stayed a child (of course.)
Despite school and my grandmother too
Who, due to her frustrated dreams of being a hairdresser
Sheared my head
And instead of a part down the middle
Fato looked like a highway

When I was a boy, nothing was difficult
I thought differently
I was different
Life didn't question me
When I was a boy, nothing terrified me
A fall was routine
It hurt, but I got up
When I was a boy
When I was a boy.
When I was a boy.
But I had to grow up, I had to grow up
