Sé qué hay en tus ojos con solo mirar
I know what's in your eyes just by looking
Que estás cansado de andar y de andar
That you're tired of walking and walking
Y caminar
And walking
Girando siempre en un lugar
Always spinning in one place
Sé que las ventanas se pueden abrir
I know that windows can be opened
Cambiar el aire depende de ti
Changing the air depends on you
Te ayudará
It will help you
Vale la pena una vez más
It's worth it once more
Saber que se puede, querer que se pueda
Knowing that it can be, wanting it to be
Quitarse los miedos, sacarlos afuera
Shedding your fears, bringing them out
Pintarse la cara color esperanza
Paint your face the color of hope
Y entrar al futuro con el corazón
And step into the future with your heart
Es mejor perderse que nunca embarcar
It's better to get lost than never to embark
Mejor tentarse a dejar de intentar
Better to tempt yourself than to stop trying
Aunque ya ves
Although you see
Que no es tan fácil empezar
That it's not so easy to start
Sé que lo imposible se puede lograr
I know the impossible can be achieved
Que la tristeza algún día se irá
That sadness will one day fade away
Y así será
And so it will be
La vida cambia y cambiará
Life changes and will change
Sentirás que el alma vuela
You'll feel the soul take flight
Por cantar una vez más
To sing one more time
Saber que se puede, querer que se pueda
To know it can be done, to want it to be
Quitarse los miedos, sacarlos afuera
To shed your fears, let them out
Pintarse la cara color esperanza
To paint your face the color of hope
Tentar al futuro con el corazón
To tempt the future with your heart
Saber que se puede, querer que se pueda
To know it can be done, to want it to be
Quitarse los miedos, sacarlos afuera
To shed your fears, let them out
Pintarse la cara color esperanza
To paint your face the color of hope
Entrar al futuro con el corazón
To step into the future with your heart
Vale más poder brillar
It's worth more to be able to shine
Que solo buscar ver el sol
Than just looking to see the sun
Pintarse la cara color esperanza
To paint your face the color of hope
Tentar al futuro con el corazón
To tempt the future with your heart
Saber que se puede
To know that it can be done
Querer que se pueda

Quitarse los miedos, sacarlos afuera
