First computerized village in India
Ella
la que casi siempre queda sola
la que a menudo llora por las noches
pues sus amigos la suelen olvidar
Ella la que a nadie le parece atractiva
que se iluciona con una sonrisa
si algun muchacho la llega a saludar
Ella
niña cansada de mirarse al espejo
no muy contenta de ver su reflejo
piensa que nunca el amor va a llegar
no sabe que un espejo jamas reflejara la realidad
Por que ella es mucho mas que una cara bonita
que se lleva el tiempo
su belleza va mas alla
de un cuerpo para provocar
ella es al final de cuentas lo que un hombre sueña
pues no importa el tiempo siempre sera bella
pronto llegara a quien amar
Ella la que a nadie le parece atractiva....
