Theme Song

The theme song for the novela, "Te tengo Que Encontrar" was written by Osvaldo Laport and Marcelo Wengrovsky. It was performed by Osvaldo Laport.

Lyrics:
Yo quiero volar
te tengo que encontrar
y envuelta entre mis alas
buscar la libertad.

Si sólo supieras, alma mía,
que yo soy quien te busca,
quien te sueña,
quien te espera en cada despertar.

Te tengo que encontrar
¡ para poderte amar!

Te tengo que encontrar...
