Cuando Yo Queria Ser Grande
Jenni Rivera
When I Wanted to Be Grown-Up
They're lost in time
My years, they're getting ahead of me
My father no longer holds my hand
Only his advice
The advice of a child lives in me
When I wished upon a star
How I remember my father who smiled at that
While my mother recorded
Years that come slowly
First how slowly they move forward
How I wanted to grow up, I remember
So as not to stay at home and accompany my father far away
Maybe until the end of the world
Because my father was strong
He was very intelligent
He was better than anyone
Today I no longer want the years to pass
Why is my father already old?
His hands have become covered with wrinkles
And his hair is snowy
Oh, Lord, stop the time, I pray
Because You can do it
Because I really don't understand
My God, why do we miss out on good things?
When your steps grow weary, one day
I want to be the one who takes care of them
In the meantime, give me your arm
And let's see what you're going to tell me
