    De momento la tristeza está queriéndome pegar,
    leo un libro interesante y lo dejo a la mitad,
    un mensaje telefónico me obliga a comprender,
    que no crea en los milagos que no espere, para qué.
    De momento no persigo ser feliz en un lugar,
    ni encontrar otra pareja que me ayude a olvidar,
    es injusto y no pretendo utilizar a nadie más,
    en el mar de corazones solitarios naufragar...
    (Coro)
    Honda, honda se me hace así la vida,
    estoy parado en medio de la vía,
    y el autobus que espero ya no pasa por aquí.
    Honda, con un humor que nadie me soporta,
    con unas ganas de acabar la historia,
    pasar rapidamente a otra canción.
    De momento no persigo ser feliz en un lugar,
    ni encontrar otra pareja que me ayude a olvidar,
    es injusto y no pretendo utilizar a nadie más,
    en el mar de corazones solitarios naufragar...
    (Coro)
    Honda, honda se me hace así la vida,
    estoy parado en medio de la vía
    y el autobus que espero ya no pasa por aquí.
    Honda, con un humor que nadie me soporta,
    con unas ganas de acabar la historia,
    pasar rapidamente a otra canción.
    Honda, honda se me hace así la vida,
    estoy parado en medio de la vía
