Lyrics

Ivan - Fotonovela Tu para mi eres la estrella un corazon a todo color nuestra vida como una dulce mentira - cuentos tiernos - inventos que inventas tu. b Vuela - con tu fotonovela vuela - mujer fotonovela. Tu para mi solo una historia un medio amor sin solucion una musica y una cena con velas - siempre tu - fotonovela solo tu. Vuela - con tu fotonovela vuela - mujer fotonovela. Tu para mi eres la estrella yo para ti no se quien soy. Vuela - con tu fotonovela vuela - con tu fotonovela. Vuela - con tu fotonovela vuela - con tu fotonovela.
