 ... 

Nadie sabe las razones
de este empezarte a querer,
de este seguirte queriendo,
de este quererte después.

Que se devuelven los ojos,
que se devuelven los pies,
que se devuelven los sueños
adonde quiera que estés.

Yo tengo los pies enfermos
de un modo de caminar,
que se me devuelven solos
adonde quiera que estás.

 ...
