The
music video tells the story of how two college sweethearts met. The young woman begins to gain interest in the young man as she sees him all over campus, and observes how he tries so hard to "impress her" or "tries to get her attention" by his goofy acts like bumping into her "on purpose" or "acting a fool with his friends". She thinks that's just his way of trying to get to her. And when she sees that he's making no physical move to ask her out, she decides to be the one to do it instead. However, when she finally has the courage to talk to him she finds out that he'sblind and that all his "stunts" weren't stunts at all, but the real deal. For the fact that he is blind doesn't stop her from still wanting to get to know him. The two soon become good friends and eventually their love blossoms. He shows her how life is for him by wrapping her eyes in a blind-fold; and she lets him get behind her car and drive it. Throughout the videoManá is playing in a small club withJuan Luis Guerra . In the end of the video the happy college couple go to the club and dance whileManá andJuan Luis Guerra sing "Bendita Tu Luz".External links
