She Wolf lyrics - Shakira

S.O.S. she's in disguise

S.O.S. she's in disguise

There's a she wolf in disguise

Coming out, coming out, coming out

A domesticated girl that's all you ask of me

Darling, it is no joke, this is lycanthropy

The moon's awake now, with eyes wide open

My body's craving, so feed the hungry

I've been devoting myself to you Monday to Monday and Friday to Friday

Not getting enough retribution or decent incentives to keep me at it

I'm starting to feel just a little abused like a coffee machine in an office, ah

So I'm gonna go somewhere cosy to get me a lover and tell you about it

There's a she wolf in the closet

Open up and set it free

There's a she wolf in your closet

Let it out so it can breathe

Sitting across a bar, staring right at her prey

It's going well so far, she's gonna get her way

Nocturnal creatures are not so prudent

The moon's my teacher, and I'm her student

To locate the single man I got on me a special radar

And the fire department hot line in case I get in trouble later

Not looking for cute little divos or rich city guys I just want to enjoy

By having a very good time and behave very bad in the arms of a boy

There's a she wolf in the closet

Open up and set it free

There's a she wolf in your closet

Let it out so it can breathe

S.O.S. she's in disguise

S.O.S. she's in disguise

There's a she wolf in disguise

Coming out, coming out, coming out

S.O.S. she's in disguise

S.O.S. she's in disguise

There's a she wolf in disguise

Coming out, coming out, coming out

There's a she wolf in your closet

Let it out so it can breathe

Did It Again lyrics - Shakira

First floor (ah..)

Room sixteen (ah..)

Smells like danger (let's go)

Even better (let's go)

Set your goals (ah..)

Bless our souls (ah..)

I'm in trouble (yes, I know)

But it feels like heaven

You were like one of those guys

The kind with the wandering eyes (HEY!)

But I said, "hey what the hell, once in my life I'll take a ride on the wild side"

You were so full of yourself

But damn, were you cute, as well (HEY!)

You liked my legs, I liked your moves

Anyone could tell that it's hard to deny that

Did it again, now

I got it all wrong

But it felt so right

I can't believe it

And all the mistakes

That went on for too long

Wish there was a way

I could delete them

Second night in a row

Back in trouble (Let's go)

I don't get it (Let's go)

Gotta keep it down

'Cause the lobby called

But we ignore them (yes, I know)

'Cause it's getting better

When it comes to men it's known

That I end up choosing wrong

'Cause I always trip and fall

On the same old rock and repeat and go back

How blind a girl can be

To miss you hide your ring

Lied about everything

I'm so naive and I should have known that

Did it again now

I got it all wrong

But it felt so right

I can't believe it

And all the mistakes

That went on for too long

Wish there was a way

I could delete them

It may seem to you that I am in a place

Where I'm losing the direction of my life

But I'm sure that this is nothing but a phase

"Right back at ya," cause I'll survive

It may seem to you that I am in a place

Where I'm losing the direction of my life

But I'm sure that this is nothing but a phase

"Right back at ya," cause I'll survive

Did it again now

I got it all wrong

But it felt so right

I can't believe it

And all the mistakes

That went on for too long

Wish there was a way

I could delete them

Did it again now

I got it all wrong

Long Time lyrics - Shakira

Hold me

Show me all the talent God has given you

I want us thinking outside the box (all night long)

Just keep on going

You've done good things for me

Though I'm not an easy girl to please

I'll never run out of faith in you (all night long)

Just keep on going

Long time, baby, long time

That's the way I've loved you baby

Long night it's been a long night

I'm breaking the record, told ya

Long time, baby, long time

The minutes are eternal lately

Long night it's been a long night

I can't wait to touch you, touch you

I wish I had longer legs

That I could fasten to your body so you'd take me with you everywhere

And when you think I can take no more (all night long)

Just keep on going

If I let you have your way don't think I'm weak

You got the stamina and the technique

So let those eloquent hands of yours (all night long)

Just keep on going

Long time, baby, long time

That's the way I've loved you baby

Long night it's been a long night

I'm breaking the record, told ya

Long time, baby, long time

The minutes are eternal lately

Long night it's been a long night

I can't wait to touch you, touch you

This thing we've got's so rare

It's so good it's not even fair

So how could anything compare

To your way, no way

How can you do me so much good

I'm so happy I should get sued

But nothing matters next to you

No way, no way

Long time, long time

That's the way I've loved you baby

Long night it's been a long night

I'm breaking the record, told ya

Long time, baby, long time

The minutes are eternal lately

Long night it's been a long night

I can't wait to touch you, touch you

Why Wait lyrics - Shakira

Put your trust in me

I won't let you down

Don't delay the things

That you want right now

Why wait for later?

Hey, don't you want some action

I'm not a waiter I like to make things happen

Something's coming on, coming on strong

Don't take too long

Don't you wanna know

Baby come home

One more night with you

I won't think it through

Time's money thought you knew

There's nothing in the world you can think of that I won't do to you

Drowning in your sweat

Till I drench my clothes

You've seen nothing yet

Wait till you let go

Why wait for later?

Obey my intuition

We're gonna be just fine

I've got a premonition

Something's coming on, coming on strong

Don't take too long

Don't you wanna know

Baby come home

One more night with you

I won't think it through

Time's money thought you knew

There's nothing in the world you can think of that I won't do to you

I'm gonna dance through the veil of your eyes

While you follow my steps in the sand

I see your fate in the palm of your hand

No one looks, no one hears us this time

It's only me and your conscience tonight

If there are no witnesses, then there is no crime

Why wait for later?

I'm not a waiter

Something's coming on, coming on strong

Don't take too long

Don't you wanna know

Baby come home

One more night with you

I won't think it through

Time's money thought you knew

There's nothing in the world you can think of that I won't do to--

One more night with you

I won't think it through

Time's money thought you knew

There's nothing in the world you can think of that I won't do to you

You, you

You, you

You, you

You, you

You, you

Good Stuff lyrics - Shakira

Tell me all your wishes

I am here to make them true, don't wonder

You don't have to rub a lamp

'Cause I'll take care of you

Nobody knows, nobody knows

Nobody knows, nobody knows

Tell me what you think I'm one of your kind

You know a girl like me is difficult to find

I bet you've never seen nothing like this before

I bet you've never met someone who loved you more

You know that I'm a witch and I can read your mind boy

Where do I have to sign

I'm on a board

My new resolution is to trust you

My business to love you until you've had it

I'm not gonna miss out on the good stuff

The grass is much greener with us on it

Better than to sail on the Mediterranean Sea

Better than to get a fancy Gucci dress for free

Don't think it over

Think it over

Don't think it over

Think it over

Totally up to you what you do with me

I'm gonna make it up to us and you will see

Don't have to prove it, it is written in your eyes

Tonight you'll be the winner I will be the prize

You know that I'm a witch and I can read your mind boy

I know just what you want

And I like that

My new resolution is to trust you

My business to love you until you've had it

I'm not gonna miss out on the good stuff

The grass is much greener with us on it

Watch my body get lower

As low as it can go

All the boys will follow

I'll show you something you don't know

Watch my body get lower

As low as it can go

All the boys will follow

I'll show you something you don't know

Cause I know what you want

And I like that

My new resolution is to trust you

My business to love you until you've had it

I'm not gonna miss out on the good stuff

The grass is much greener with us on it

My new resolution is to trust you

My business to love you until you've had it

I'm not gonna miss out on the good stuff

The grass is much greener with us on it

Men In This Town lyrics - Shakira

Is there a prince in this fable

For a small town girl like me?

The good ones are gone or not able

And Matt Damon's not meant for me

Damon's not meant for me

I got to say

California is a place that I respect

Come on LA

Take advantage

Give me a night that I won't forget

I went to look

From the Sky Bar to the Standard, nothing took

These boys don't care

Got a handful with their projects and with their looks

Where are all the men in this town?

And what's a girl supposed to do?

Did they all run off when they knew

That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?

Where are all the men in this town?

And what's a girl supposed to do?

Did they all run off when they knew

That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?

Fresh

I'm so fresh, and I'm so clean

Got the lips and got the skin

Got the skin got that thing

I'm so fresh and I'm so

Is there a prince in this fable

For a small town girl like me?

The good ones are gone or not able

And Matt Damon's not meant for me

I never dreamed

That I'd come here to become the next Jolie

But I sure know there is someone around somewhere who's meant to be

Where are all the men in this town?

And what's a girl supposed to do?

Did they all run off when they knew

That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?

Where are all the men in this town?

And what's a girl supposed to do?

Did they all run off when they knew

That I was coming 'round, coming 'round?

Fresh

I'm so fresh, and I'm so clean

Got the lips and got the skin

Got the skin got that thing

I'm so fresh and I'm so

Fresh

I'm so fresh, and I'm so clean

Got the lips and got the skin

Got the skin got that thing

I'm so fresh and I'm so

So they say

It's a suicide, waiting, others say

It's a suicide, waiting, yo no sé

It's a suicide, waiting, another day

It's a suicide, waiting

So decide, it's a suicide waiting all this time

It's a suicide, waiting ¿Dónde estás?

It's a suicide, waiting, so decide

It's a suicide, waiting

Gypsy lyrics - Shakira

Broke my heart on the road

Spent the weekend sewing the pieces back on

Crayons and dolls pass me by

Walking gets too boring when you learn how to fly

Not the homecoming kind

Take the top off and who knows what you might find

Won't confess all my sins

You can bet all trying but you can't always win

'Cause I'm a gypsy

Are you coming with me?

I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me

Never made agreements

Just like a gypsy

And I won't back down 'cause life's already bit me

And I won't cry

I'm too young to die

If you're gonna quit me

'Cause I'm a gypsy

('Cause I'm a gypsy)

I can't hide what I've done

Scars remind me of just how far that I've come

To whom it may concern

Only run with scissors when you want to get hurt

'Cause I'm a gypsy

Are you coming with me?

I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me

I don't make agreements

Just like a gypsy

And I won't back down 'cause life's already bit me

And I won't cry

I'm too young to die

If you're gonna quit me

'Cause I'm a gypsy

And I say

"Hey, you! You're no fool if you say 'No'"

Ain't it just the way life goes?

People fear what they don't know

Come along for the ride (oh, yeah)

Come along for the ride (ooh)

'Cause I'm a gypsy

Are you coming with me?

I might steal your clothes and wear them if they fit me

Never made agreements

Just like a gypsy

And I won't back down 'cause life's already bit me

And I won't cry

I'm too young to die

If you're gonna quit me

'Cause I'm a gypsy

Spy lyrics - Shakira (feat. Wyclef Jean)

[Wyclef Jean:]

You all ready for that [?] experience

We got it going on the floor, man

I see everybody on the floor getting their dance on

Get your two-step on

That's my girl, you gotta find the hope

Let's go!

Slow motion

Blinds are see-through

Let your mind go

Imagine that I kiss you

Turn off the lights and open up your eyes now

You can take a glimpse into my soul for tonight

Do you got the heat off girl? Yes I do

Can you turn up the temperature? Bet I could

Colombian with a swagger. Yes I am

Whatever it takes to make this thing work we're gonna

Whatever it takes to make this thing work we're gonna

There's a spy by my window (yup)

I know it's you

You like to keep an eye on me (I do)

I know you like to keep an eye on me

There's a spy by my window

I know it's you (it's me)

Won't you like to keep an eye on me

I know you like to keep an eye on me (I do, girl)

Keep an eye on me

But if you want it gotta let it be

I know you dream about me

And it turns me on to think about it

This is the finest game

It ain't even got a name

I just wanna see how far it takes us tonight

Do you got the music on girl? Yes I do

Can you get a little closer? Bet I could

Colombian with a swagger. Yes I am

Whatever it takes to make this thing work we're gonna

Whatever it takes to make this thing work we're gonna

Whatever it takes to make this thing work we're gonna

There's a spy by my window (yup)

I know it's you (that's me)

You like to keep an eye on me (I do)

I know you like to keep an eye on me (yup)

There's a spy by my window

I know it's you (it's me)

Won't you like to keep an eye on me

I know you like to keep an eye on me

Keep an eye on me

But if you want it gotta let it be

When the dog's away that's when the cat's play (Yeah, yeah)

You'll be my girl, I'll be the spy

Like the James Bond flick girl I'm ready to ride (Ride, ride)

When the cat's away that's when the mouse play

You'll be my girl, I'll be the spy

Like the James Bond flick girl I'm ready to die, die die

There's a spy by my window (yup)

I know it's you

You like to keep an eye on me

I know you like to keep an eye on me

There's a spy by my window (yup)

I know it's you (yup)

Won't you like to keep an eye on me

I know you like to keep an eye on me

Keep an eye on me

But if you want it gotta let it be

OK

Wyclef, AKA Mr. Bond

Lipstick's on

Stockings up

Skirt's short

Heels are high

Take your time

Buckle up

Close your eyes and enjoy the ride

Close your eyes and enjoy the ride

Close your eyes

Close your eyes and enjoy the ride

Mon Amour lyrics - Shakira

I think you are living in denial

Oh can't you see she's pretty wild?

And every night I pray that you don't knock her up

'Cause I still want to be the mother of your child

They say "L'amour est né à Paris"

So she's planned a little trip to France

While she's in anxious anticipation

I really hope you have a horrible vacation

And so you think of me when you arrive

Hope the French fleas eat you both alive

And your room smells

And the toilet doesn't flush

And the locals treat you mean

And the service takes too long

'Cause I'm fragile

And you broke my heart in two

But you just smile

Like it's all the same to you, to you

When you learn your lesson

Come back like a prodigal son

And read the big sign at the airport

"Bienvenue from Hell, mon amour"

When you learn your lesson

Come back like a prodigal son

And read the big sign at the airport

"Bienvenue from Hell, mon amour"

Where did you get the ability

To make fakes promises to me

You are exactly like a politician

Need everyone's approval just to see if you're doing right

And I hope you freeze under the Eiffel Tower

So you end up throwing in the towel

Hope you'll miss me

And someday you're gonna see

That I put my trust in you

But you turned your back to me

'Cause I'm fragile

And you broke my heart in two

But you just smile

Like it's all the same to you, to you

When you learn your lesson

Come back like a prodigal son

And read the big sign at the airport

"Bienvenue from Hell, mon amour"

When you learn your lesson

Come back like a prodigal son

And read the big sign at the airport

"Bienvenue from Hell, mon amour"

What's your destination?

What's your destination?

When you learn your lesson

Come back like a prodigal son

And read the big sign at the airport

"Bienvenue from Hell, mon amour"

When you learn your lesson

Come back like a prodigal son

And read the big sign at the airport

"Bienvenue from Hell, mon amour"

Mon amour, mon amour

Passengers with destination

Passengers with destination

Passengers with destination to Hell

Please proceed to your gate

We are ready to board now

Lo Hecho Está Hecho lyrics - Shakira

En la suite 16

Lo que empieza no termina

Del mini bar al Edén

Y en muy mala compañía

Era ese sabor en tu piel

A azufre revuelto con miel

Así que me llené de coraje y me fui a caminar por el lado salvaje

Pensé "no me mires así"

Ya sé lo que quieres de mí

Que no hay que ser vidente aquí

Para un mal como tú no hay cuerpo que aguante

Lo hecho está hecho

Volví a tropezar

Con la misma piedra que hubo siempre

Se siente tan bien todo lo que hace mal

Y contigo nunca es suficiente

¿Cómo fue?

¿Qué pasó?

Esa noche

Impaciente

Fueron a llamar

De la recepción

Cuando se quejaban de la 17

No puede ser nada normal

Acabar eligiendo tan mal

En materia de hombres soy toda una experta siempre en repetir mis errores

No hay ceguera peor

Que no querer mirar

Cuando te guardabas el anillo dentro del bolsillo y dejarlo pasar

Lo hecho está hecho

Volví a tropezar

Con la misma piedra que hubo siempre

Se siente tan bien todo lo que hace mal

Y contigo nunca es suficiente

Nunca me sentí tan fuera de lugar

Nunca tanto se escapó de mi control

Pero todo en este mundo es temporal

Lo eres tú, lo soy yo

Nunca me senti tan fuera de lugar

Nunca tanto se escapó de mi control

Pero todo en este mundo es temporal

En eso no decido yo

Lo hecho está hecho

Volví a tropezar

Con la misma piedra que hubo siempre

Se siente tan bien todo lo que hace mal

Y contigo nunca es suficiente

Se siente tan bien todo lo que hace mal

Años Luz lyrics - Shakira

Ven confía en mi

No hay porque dejar

Para hacer después

Lo que quieras ya

Es el instinto

Deja que te sacuda

El cielo es de los que creen

Y no de los que dudan

Soy un volcán

En erupcíon

Entra en razón

Que suba el telón

Cámara, acción

Esperar

Es un mar

Que aún no sé

Navegar

No te quedes

Años luz

Ya estoy decidida

Y quiero saber si lo estás tú

Ven confía en mi

No hay margen de error

Deja que en mi piel

Brille tu sudor

¿Qué es lo que esperas?

Ya casi madrugada

Mi cremallera

No está electrificada

No me tengas más consideracíon

Entra en razón

Que suba el telón

Cámara, acción

Esperar

Es un mar

Que aún no sé

Navegar

No te quedes

Años luz

Ya estoy decidida

Y quiero saber si lo estás tú

Subiré por tu espalda la seda

Como en el muro la entredadera

Cuando se besen la luna y la arena

Nadie nos mira esta noche es nuestra

No habrá testigos no habrá evidencia

Somos solamente yo y tu conciencia

¿Qué es lo que esperas?

¿Qué es lo que esperas?

No me tengas más consideracíon

Entra en razón

Que suba el telón

Cámara, acción

Esperar

Es un mar

Que aún no sé

Navegar

No te quedes

Años luz

Ya estoy decidida

Y quiero saber si lo estás

Esperar

Es un mar

Que aún no sé

Navegar

No te quedes

Años luz

Ya estoy decidida

Y quiero saber si lo estás tú

Tú

Loba lyrics - Shakira

Sigilosa al pasar

Sigilosa al pasar

Esa loba es especial

Mírala, caminar caminar

Quién no ha querido a una diosa licántropa

En el ardor de una noche romántica

Mis aullidos son el llamado

Yo quiero un lobo domesticado

Por fin he encontrado un remedio infalible que borre del todo la culpa

No pienso quedarme a tu lado mirando la tele y oyendo disculpas

La vida me ha dado un hambre voráz y tú apenas me das caramelos

Me voy con mis piernas y mi juventúd por ahí aunque te maten los celos

Una loba en el armario

Tiene ganas de salir

Deja que se coma el barrio

Antes de irte a dormir

Tengo tacones de aguja magnética

Para dejar la manada frenética

La luna llena como una fruta

No da consejos ni los escucha

Llevo conmigo un radar especial para localizar solteros

Si acaso me meto en aprietos también llevo el número de los bomberos

Ni tipos muy lindos ni divos ni niños ricos yo sé lo que quiero

Pasarla muy bien y portarme muy mal en los brazos de algún caballero

Una loba en el armario

Tiene ganas de salir

Deja que se coma el barrio

Antes de irte a dormir

Cuando son casi la una la loba en celo saluda a la luna

Duda si andar por la calle o entrar en un bar a probar fortuna

Ya está sentada en su mesa y pone la mira en su próxima presa

Pobre del desprevenido que no se esperaba una de esas

Sigilosa al pasar

Sigilosa al pasar

Esa loba es especial

Mírala caminar, caminar

Deja que se coma el barrio

Antes de irte a dormir

Give It Up To Me lyrics - Shakira (feat. Lil' Wayne)

How you doin'? I'm Mr. Mos I'm back

Timb, are you on it?

Timb, are you on it?

Give me some

Is this what you wanted?

Is this what you wanted? Oh

Uh, Wayne's world

I'm the cashier I change girls

You can go up my crane girl

And I'mma go down that drain girl

Hey ah midnight cowboy

My flow's a dog, down boy

Hah, and my girl is a queen

And she do what I say and I say what I mean

Then I give it to her uncut

Shakira, swing them hips like nun chucks

Now, give it to me

I want the best and the best things in life are free

You can have it all

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

Nothing too big or small

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

What you get is exactly what you give

Never really know until you try

We're so ahead of this

Got this she wolf appetite

That keeps me up all night

You know the way it works

Don't be afraid to ask

Aim high when the target is low

FYI, I am ready to go

People say men are just like kids

Never saw a kid behave like this

What you give is exactly what you receive

So put me in a cage and lock me away

And I'll play the games that you want me to play

You can have it all

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

Nothing too big or small

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

Hey, can we go by walking

Or do you prefer to fly?

All of the roads are open

In your life, in your life

Give it up to me

Hey can we go by walking

Or do you prefer to fly?

All of the roads are open

In your life, in your life

Give it up to me

Hey lil' lady

What's your plan?

Say lil' mama

Come take a ride jump in

Hey there, baby

What's on your mind?

Don't need approval tonight, tonight

Give it up

You can have it all

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

Nothing too big or small

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

You can have it all

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

Nothing too big or small

Anything you want you can make it yours

Anything you want in the world

Anything you want in the world

Give it up to me

How Do You Do lyrics - Shakira

Forgive us our trespasses

As we forgive those who have trespassed against us

Give us this day our daily bread

Daily bread, daily bread

In caelo et in terra fiat voluntas tua

Gloria Spiritui Sancto

What language do you speak

If you speak at all?

Are you some kind of freak

Who lives to raise the ones who fall?

Hey, could you tell me why

The cat fights the dog?

Do you go to the Mosque

Or the Synagogue?

And if our fates have all been wrapped around your finger

And if you wrote the script then why the troublemakers?

How do you do?

How does it feel to be so high

And are you happy?

Do you ever cry?

I sometimes cry

You've made mistakes

Well that's OK 'cause we all have

But if I forgive yours

Will you forgive mine?

Hey, do you feel our pain

And walk in our shoes?

Have you ever felt starved

Or is your belly always full?

How many people die

And hurt in your name?

Hey, does that make you proud

Or does it bring you shame?

And if our fates have all been wrapped around your finger

And if you wrote the script then why the troublemakers?

How do you do?

How does it feel to be so high

And are you happy?

Do you ever cry?

I sometimes cry

You've made mistakes

Well that's OK 'cause we all have

But if I forgive yours

Will you forgive mine?

Forgive us our trespasses

As we forgive those who have trespassed against us

Sameh Zoonoobee Allah [Arabic. English translation: "Forgive my sins, Oh, Lord"]

Give us this day our daily bread

Mechila [Hebrew. English translation: "Forgiveness"]

Daily bread

Ya Allah (S'lach lanu) [Hebrew. English translation: "Oh, Lord (Forgive us)"]

Daily bread

Ya Allah (S'lach lanu)

Forgive us our trespasses

As we forgive those who have trespassed against us

Sameh Zoonoobee Allah

Give us this day our daily bread

Mechila

Daily bread

S'lach lanu

Daily bread

Thine is the Kingdom and the Power and the Glory

Amen!

How do you do?

How does it feel to be so high

And are you happy?

Do you ever cry?

I sometimes cry

You've made mistakes

Well that's OK 'cause we all have

And if I forgive yours

Will you forgive mine?

Will you forgive mine?

How do you do?

How does it feel to be so high

And are you happy?

Do you ever cry?

I sometimes cry

You've made mistakes

And that's OK 'cause we all have

But if I forgive yours

Will you forgive mine?

Don't Bother lyrics - Shakira

She's got the kind of look that defies gravity

She's the greatest cook

And she's fat free (Fat free, fat free, fat free)

She's been to private school

And she speaks perfect French

She's got her perfect friends

Oh isn't she cool

She practices Tai Chi

She'd never lose her nerve

She's more than you deserve

She's just far better than me

Hey hey

So don't bother

I won't die of deception

I promise you won't ever see me cry

Don't feel sorry

And don't bother

I'll be fine

But she's waiting

The ring you gave to her will lose its shine

So don't bother, be unkind

I'm sure she doesn't know

How to touch you like I would

I beat her at that one good

Don't you think so?

She's almost 6 feet tall

She must think I'm a flea

I'm really a cat you see

And it's not my last life at all

Hey hey

So don't bother

I won't die of deception

I promise you won't ever see me cry

Don't feel sorry

Don't bother

I'll be fine

But she's waiting

The ring you gave to her will lose its shine

So don't bother, be unkind

For you, I'd give up all I own

And move to a communist country

If you came with me, of course

And I'd file my nails so they don't hurt you

And lose those pounds, learn about football

If it made you stay, but you won't, but you won't

So don't bother

I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine

Promise you won't ever see me cry

And after all I'm glad that I'm not your type

Promise you won't ever see me cry

Don't bother

I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine, I'll be fine

Promise you won't ever see me cry

And after all I'm glad that I'm not your type, not your type, not your type, not your type

Promise you won't ever see me cry

Illegal lyrics - Shakira (feat. Carlos Santana)

Who would've thought

That you could hurt me

The way you've done it?

So deliberate, so determined

And since you have been gone

I bite my nails for days and hours

And question my own questions on and on

So tell me now, tell me now

Why you're so far away

When I'm still so close

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"

You said you would love me until you die

And as far as I know you're still alive, baby

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"

I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

I tried so hard to be attentive

To all you wanted

Always supportive, always patient

What did I do wrong?

Been wondering for days and hours

It's clear, it isn't here where you belong

Anyhow, anyhow

I wish you both all the best

I hope you get along

But you don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"

You said you would love me until you die

And as far as I know you're still alive, baby

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"

I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"

You said you would love me until you die

And as far as I know you're still alive, baby

You don't even know the meaning of the words "I'm sorry"

I'm starting to believe it should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

Open heart

Open heart

It should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

Open heart

Open heart

It should be illegal to deceive a woman's heart

The Day And The Time lyrics - Shakira (feat. Gustavo Cerati)

Who's to say that we always have to agree

I think we both can take this one mistake

Like some kind of amnesty

Why to love and with such brutality?

We're compatible

Maybe a bit too much

That's our ambiguity

I've cried a thousand storms

I've blown away the clouds

The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine

And listen how

My heart is waiting

This is the day and the time

I wanna believe that we may still have a chance

We took a leap in the dark

And I can see now

How shadows have turned to light

Well, we know

How ephemeral life is

Disillusion takes what illusion gives

What's the use of make believe?

The needles of the clock

Are moving right to left

Pretend we never heard of things we said

Like we've been deaf

And start all over

This is the day and the time

I wanna believe that we may still have a chance

We took a leap in the dark

And I can see now

How shadows have turned to light

The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine

And listen how

This is the day and the time

I wanna believe that we may still have a chance

We took a leap in the dark

And I can see now

How shadows have turned to light

The time

Animal City lyrics - Shakira

La la la la la lei

La la lei

La la la la la la lei

La la lei

Why do all my friends

Now want to be your lovers?

Your family got bigger

When they thought you were rich

And now like maniacs

They scratch your back

Even when it doesn't itch

I want to figure it all

I want to figure it all out

I want to save you from

Save you from all the fame

Save you from the things that cause us pain

'Cause it's an animal city

It's a cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to bite you

It's an animal city

It's a cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to bite you

My love

They believe you now

Have everything you wanted

And once you have become a star

You got no right to bitch

But someday when you fail

They'll put you on sale

And buy you by the inch

But you're the real deal

And "Real" is your middle name

You know sometimes I feel

I gotta earn every breath you take

Baby, never mind the rules we break

'Cause it's an animal city

It's a cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to bite you

It's an animal city

It's a cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to rip you right off

With you I feel safe

There's nothing to fear from us

Away from the fangs

The fangs of the world

I may be a coward but you are brave

And nothing seems so dangerous

'Cause it's an animal city

It's a cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to bite you

It's an animal city

It's a cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to rip you right off

Cannibal world

Cannibal world

Cannibal world

Cannibal world

So be obedient, don't argue

Some are ready to bite you

My love

Dreams For Plans lyrics - Shakira

Once upon a time you and I

When we were green and easy

Fresh as limes and happy as a Sunday sky

There was nothing we could sell or buy

'Cause all we really needed

Was our bare feet and a pair of wings to fly

What do you think, darling?

Have we lived too much, too fast?

And have you

Have you felt the melancholy, darling

Wishing the time hadn't passed?

Can you tell me how we used to be?

Have we missed our chance?

Have we changed our hopes for fears

And our dreams for plans?

Can you tell me how we used to be

When we really cared?

And when love was on our side

On our side

I remember all the times before

When we could spend our living

Staring at the ceiling, lying on the floor

My vocabulary wasn't broad

I spoke so little English

And the word "stress" would

Sound like something odd

What do you think, darling?

Have I lived too much, too fast?

And have you

Have you felt the melancholy, darling

Wishing the time hadn't passed?

Can you tell me how we used to be?

Have we missed our chance?

Have we changed our hopes for fears

And our dreams for plans?

Can you tell me how we used to be

When we really cared?

And when love was on our side

On our side

What is your guess, darling?

Have I lived too much, too fast?

So if you

If you ever come and find me crying

Now you know

Now you know why

Can you tell me how I used to be?

Have I missed my chance?

Have I changed my hopes for fears

And my dreams for plans?

Can you tell me how we used to be

When we really cared?

And when love was on our side

On our side

Hey You lyrics - Shakira

I'd like to be

The kind of dream you'd never share

To be your boss and to be your maid

Your shaving cream, your razor blade

The buttons of your shirt

Your favourite underwear

I'd like to be

The only thing on Earth that makes you cry

The only thing that makes you happy

Soon you will see

That no one else but me can take you this high

And soon you'll make your last name mine

Hey you

Makin' an offer that

No one could ever refuse

Don't play the adamant

Don't be so arrogant

Can't you see I've fallen for ya?

Hey you

Makin' an offer that

No one would dare to refuse

Don't play the adamant

Don't be so arrogant

Let me in

Let me be your muse tonight

Tonight

Tonight

I'd like to be

The first white hair upon your head

To be your cherry pie

Your daily bread

I'll cook for free

I'll make your bed

If I can know the things you've thought and never said

I'd like to be the owner of the zipper on your jeans

And that thing that makes you happy

I'd like to be the beginning, the end

And the in-between

And be your slave

And be your queen

Hey you

Makin' an offer that

No one could ever refuse

Don't play the adamant

Don't be so arrogant

Can't you see I've fallen for ya?

Hey you

Makin' an offer that

No one would dare to refuse

Don't play the adamant

Don't be so arrogant

Let me in

Let me be your muse tonight

Tonight

Tonight

Tonight

Tonight

Hey you

Makin' an offer that

No one could ever refuse

Don't play the adamant

Don't be so arrogant

Can't you see I've fallen for ya?

Hey you

Makin' an offer that

No one would ever refuse

Don't play the adamant

Don't be so arrogant

Let me in

Let me be your muse tonight

Oooh

Tonight

Tonight

Oh, oh

Oooh

Tonight

Tonight

Oooh

Oh, oh

Let me in

Let me be your muse

Be your muse tonight

Your Embrace lyrics - Shakira

Tell me, what's the use

Of a twenty-four inch waist

If you don't touch me?

Tell me, what's the use again

Of being on TV every day

If you don't watch me?

This house is full of emptiness

My closet's full of dresses

That I'll never wear

My life is full of people

But you're my only friend

My best friend

Hope it isn't too late

To say "I love you"

Hope it isn't too late to say

That without you this place looks like London

It rains every day

Don't you know it, babe

I'm only half a body

Without your embrace

Let me tell you why

My heart is an unfurnished room

Any suggestions?

Don't have to tell you more than that

'Cause no one knows me like you do

Without exception

This house is full of emptiness

My closet's full of dresses

That I'll never wear

My life is full of people

But you're my only friend

My best friend

Hope it isn't too late

To say "I love you"

Hope it isn't too late to say

That without you this place looks like London

It rains every day

Don't you know it, babe

I'm only half a body

Without your embrace

Hope it isn't too late

To say "I love you"

Hope it isn't too late to say

That without you this place looks like London

It rains every day

Don't you know it, babe

I'm only half a body

Without your embrace

Costume Makes The Clown lyrics - Shakira

Told you I felt lucky with my humble breasts

Well I don't

Said that I was sure the world was gonna change

Well I'm not

Before I didn't give a damn 'bout what they say

But I do

Promised that I'll never ever lie to you

But look at how

I'm taking the make-up off my face

Before I forget my own features

I'm not here to let you down

But the costume makes the clown

That's just life's anatomy

Don't be so hard

Don't be so hard on this

It's your turn now

To cheat on me

Promises I made to you went down the sink

Really hope I haven't harmed your self-esteem

I'm not a virgin but I'm not the whore you think

And I don't always smell like strawberries and cream

So look at how

I'm taking the make-up off my face

Before I forget who I am now

'Cause I'm not here to let you down

But the costume makes the clown

It's just life's anatomy

Don't be so hard

Don't be so hard on this

It's your turn now

Your turn now

I'm not here to let you down

But the costume makes the clown

It's just life's anatomy

Don't be so hard

Don't be so hard on this

It's your turn now

Your turn now

To cheat on me

Something lyrics - Shakira

Quand tu

Quand tu me prends dans tes bras

Quand je regarde dans tes yeux

Je vois qu'un Dieu existe

C'est pas dur d'y croire

Before I met you I wasn't terribly lucky

Every Prince Charming lost charm after twelve

But then you came and made the past look so funny

Put my old sadness to sleep on a shelf

If this was meant to be

Don't condemn me to be free

And even if we never marry

I will always love you, baby

Childishly

'Cause something

You've got something I can't resist

Things are what they will be

When I look into your eyes

They say to me that God still exists

And there's something

You've got something I can't resist

Things are what they will be

When I look into your eyes

They say to me that God still exists

You make me believe

You make me believe

I love the temperature and smell of your body

The shape of your lips and the size of your nose

I love that everything you say is so funny

Plus you're the best kisser that I've ever known

You see the way I am

Without make-up, without clothes

And you accept me like nobody

And I will always love you, baby

With eyes closed

'Cause something

You've got something I can't resist

Things are what they will be

When I look into your eyes

They say to me that God still exists

And there's something

You've got something I can't resist

Things are what they will be

When I look into your eyes

They say to me that God still exists

You make me believe

You make me believe

Quand tu

Quand tu me prends dans tes bras

Quand je regarde dans tes yeux

Je vois qu'un Dieu existe

Ce n'est pas dur d'y croire

There's something

I believe

There's something

I believe

There's something

I believe

I do

You make me believe

Je te desire

Timor lyrics - Shakira

Timor, Timor

Yale, Yale

East Timor, Timor

Timor, Timor

Timor, Timor

Going on and on and on and on

Is it going on and on and on and on now

Said it once and say it twice

I want to save your time

Safety, safety

It's alright, it's alright

'Cause the system never fails

The good guys are in power

And the bad guys are in jail

It's alright, it's alright

Just as long as we can vote

We live in democracy

And that's what we promote

Isn't it? Isn't it?

Oh

Isn't it? Isn't it?

Oh

It's alright, it's alright

If the news says half the truth

Hearing what we want's

The secret of eternal youth

It's alright, it's alright

The planets split in three

'Cause I'll keep selling records

And you've got your MTV

If we forget about 'em

Don't worry

If they forget about us

Then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

In East Timor, Timor, Timor

Ooh

Ah, ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah, ah

It's alright, it's alright

They don't show it all on TV

So we won't really know it

Just by watching BC

It's alright, it's alright

For our flag we die or kill

As long as we don't know it

We'd do it just to pay the bills

If we forget about 'em

Don't worry

If they forget about us

Then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

If we forget about 'em

Don't worry

If they forget about us

Then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

In East Timor, Timor, Timor

Let's keep tanning while it's sunny

They'll risk our hides to make their money

Now don't you find that funny?

If we forget about 'em

If they forget about us

Then hurry

How about the people who don't matter anymore?

If we forget about 'em

Don't worry

If they forget about us

Then hurry

How about those people who don't matter anymore?

In East Timor, Timor, Timor

En Tus Pupilas lyrics - Shakira

Quand tu, quand tu me prends dans tes bras

Quand je regarde dans tes yeux

Je vois qu'un Dieu existe

C'est pas dur d'y croire

Antes de conocerte el mundo era plano

Aunque lo discuta usted Señor Galilei

Y me cansé de besar ranas en vano

Pero el príncipe azul

Jamás no encontré

Y así llegaste tú

Devolviéndome la fe

Sin poemas y sin flores

Con defectos con errores

Pero en pie

Y siento

Algo en ti algo entre los dos

Que me hace insistir

Cuando miro en tus pupilas sé que Dios no dejó de existir

Y siento

Algo en ti algo entre los dos

Que me hace insistir

Cuando miro en tus pupilas sé que Dios no dejó de existir

Tú lo haces vivir

Tú lo haces vivir

La vida es una colección de recuerdos

Pero nada como tu recuerdo también

Desde la redondez que tienen tus labios

Al olor de tu pelo

Al color de tu piel

No pienses que te irás y me voy a resignar

Eres lo mejor que me ha pasado

Entre lo mundano y lo sagrado

Y aun mas

Y siento

Algo en ti algo entre los dos

Que me hace insistir

Cuando miro en tus pupilas sé que Dios no dejó de existir

Y siento

Algo en ti algo entre los dos

Que me hace insistir

Cuando miro en tus pupilas sé que Dios no dejó de existir

Tú lo haces vivir

Tú lo haces vivir

Quand tu, quand tu me prends dans tes bras

Quand je regarde dans tes yeux

Je vois qu'un Dieu existe

C'est pas dur d'y croire

Y siento algo en ti

Y siento algo en ti

Y siento algo en ti, algo en ti, algo en ti

La Pared lyrics - Shakira

Eres como una predicción de las buenas

Eres como una dosis alta en las venas

Y el deseo gira en espiral

Porque mi amor por ti es total

Y es para siempre

Después de ti la pared

No me faltes nunca

Debajo el asfalto

Y más abajo estaría yo

Después de ti la pared

No me faltes nunca

Debajo el asfalto

Y más abajo estaría yo

Sin ti

Eres la enfermedad y el enfermero

Y ya me has convertido

En tu perro faldero

Sabes que sin ti

Ya yo no soy

Sabes que a donde vayas voy

Naturalmente

Después de ti la pared

No me faltes nunca

Debajo el asfalto

Y más abajo estaría yo

Después de ti la pared

No me faltes nunca

Debajo el asfalto

Y mas abajo estaría yo

Sin ti

Ah, la, la, la

Ah, la, la, la

Ah, la, la, la

Después de ti la pared

No me faltes nunca

Debajo el asfalto

Y más abajo estaría yo

Sin ti

Después de ti la pared

No me faltes nunca

Debajo el asfalto

Y más abajo estaría yo

Sin ti

La Tortura lyrics - Shakira (feat. Alejandro Sanz)

[Sanz:]

Ay, payita mía

Guárdate la poesía

Guárdate la alegría

Pa'ti

[Shakira:]

No pido que todos los días sean de sol

No pido que todos los viernes sean de fiesta

Tampoco te pido que vuelvas rogando perdón

Si lloras con los ojos secos y hablando de ella

Ay amor me duele tanto

[Sanz:]

Me duele tanto

[Shakira:]

Que te fueras sin decir a dónde

Ay amor fue una tortura perderte

[Sanz:]

Yo sé que no he sido un santo

Pero lo puedo arreglar, amor

[Shakira:]

No sólo de pan vive el hombre

Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]

Sólo de errores se aprende

Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]

Mejor te guardas todo eso

A otro perro con ese hueso

Y nos decimos adiós

No puedo pedir que el invierno perdone a un rosal

No puedo pedir a los olmos que entreguen peras

No puedo pedirle lo eterno a un simple mortal

Y andar arrojando a los cerdos miles de perlas

[Sanz:]

Ay amor me duele tanto, me duele tanto

Que no creas más en mis promesas

[Shakira:]

Ay amor

[Sanz:]

Es una tortura

[Shakira:]

Perderte

[Sanz:]

Yo sé que no he sido un santo

Pero lo puedo arreglar, amor

[Shakira:]

No sólo de pan vive el hombre

Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]

Sólo de errores se aprende

Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]

Mejor te guardas todo eso

A otro perro con ese hueso

Y nos decimos adiós

[Sanz:]

No te vayas, no te vayas

Oye negrita mira, no te rajes

De lunes a viernes tienes mi amor

Déjame el sábado a mí que es mejor

Oye mi negra no me castigues más

Porque allá afuera sin ti no tengo paz

Yo sólo soy un hombre muy arrepentido

Soy como el ave que vuelve a su nido

Yo sé que no he sido un santo

Es que no estoy hecho de cartón

[Shakira:]

No sólo de pan vive el hombre

Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]

Sólo de errores se aprende

Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]

Ay ay ayyaya

Ay todo lo que he hecho por tí

Fue una tortura perderte

Me duele tanto que sea así

Sigue llorando perdón

Yo ya no voy a llorar hoy por tí

Obtener Un Si lyrics - Shakira

Ay, ay, como muero por ti

Como poder olvidarte

Basta que me enamores

O que me mandes flores

Para obtener un si

Ya tengo ojeras de tanto mirarte

Y lo peor es que aun me quedan tantas ganas de

Esperarte

Hasta que entiendas que

Te quiero porque eres claro, claro, claro

Como la planta de mis pies

Como el amor después de hecho

Como tu voz y tu piel

Ay, ay, como muero por ti

Como poder olvidarme

Basta que mandes flores

Para que me enamores

Para obtener un si

Pa-ra-la-ah, ah

Te quiero porque eres claro, claro, claro

Como la planta de mis pies, ay, ay, ay

Como el amor después de hecho

Como tu voz y tu piel

Ay, ay, como muero por ti

Como poder olvidarte

Basta que me enamores

O que me mandes flores

Para obtener un si

Ah-ha-ha

Basta que me enamores

O que me mandes flores

Para obtener un si

Día Especial lyrics - Shakira (feat. Gustavo Cerati)

Ya no sé si es muy tarde para ti

Quiero desafiar la comodidad

No nos sirve mas fingir

Yo no sé cuan efímero es tu error

Ya te perdoné

Adelante las agujas del reloj

Mi lágrima secó

Se alejó el temporal

Latiendo como el sol

Mi corazón no tiene edad

Para esperarte

Este es un día especial

Quiero creer en otra oportunidad

Dimos un salto mortal

Y hoy vuelvo a ver

Un faro en la oscuridad

Ya no estoy tan confusa como ayer

Solo la ilusión trae desilusión

Y es tan fácil de caer

El mundo en que creí

Lo eterno y lo fugaz

Prefiero darle fin

Aunque me ocultes la verdad más vulnerable

Este es un día especial

Quiero creer en otra oportunidad

Dimos un salto mortal

Y hoy vuelvo a ver

Un faro en la oscuridad

Latiendo como el sol

Mi corazón no tiene edad

Este es un día especial

Quiero creer en otra oportunidad

Dimos un salto mortal

Y hoy vuelvo a ver

Un faro en la oscuridad

Ah, especial

Ah, ah, ooh

Escondite Ingles lyrics - Shakira

Bienvenido has llegado

En el momento justo

Y al lugar indicado

No todo lo rico engorda

Y no todo lo bueno es pecado

Yo seré tus deseos hechos piernas

Una idea recurrente de la fascinación

Yo seré un complot para tu mente

El objeto y la causa de tu perdición

Y tu buena suerte

Cuenta del uno al diez

Y me escondo donde puedas verme

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite inglés

Bésame de una vez

Y te amarro a mi sofá burgués

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite inglés

No me juzgues no soy de esas

Sólo porque tengo una mente traviesa

No todo lo rico engorda

Y no él que peca empata si reza

Yo seré tus deseos hechos piernas

La que dicte una sentencia a tu imaginación

Yo seré un complot para tu mente

El objeto y la causa de tu perdición

Y tu buena suerte

Cuenta del uno al diez

Y me escondo donde puedas verme

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite inglés

Bésame de una vez

Y te amarro a mi sofá burgués

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite

Es mi forma de jugar al escondite inglés

Cuenta del uno al diez

Y me escondo donde puedas verme

Cuenta del uno al diez

Y me escondo donde puedas verme

Uno, dos, uno, dos, uno, dos, uno, dos, dos por cinco diez

No lyrics - Shakira

No, no intentes disculparte

No juegues a insistir

Las excusas ya existían antes de ti

No, no me mires como antes

No hables en plural

La retórica es tu arma más letal

Voy a pedirte que no vuelvas más

Siento que me dueles todavía aquí

Adentro

Y que a tu edad sepas bien lo que es

Romperle el corazón a alguien así

No se puede vivir con tanto veneno,

La esperanza que me da tu amor

No me la dio más nadie,

Te juro, no miento

No se puede vivir con tanto veneno

No se puede dedicar el alma

A acumular intentos

Pesa más la rabia que el cemento

Espero que no esperes que te espere

Después de mis 26

La paciencia se me ha ido hasta los pies

Y voy deshojando margaritas

Y mirando sin mirar

Para ver si así, te irritas y te vas

Voy a pedirte que no vuelvas más

Siento que me dueles todavía aquí

Adentro

Y que a tu edad sepas bien lo que es

Romperle el corazón a alguien así

No se puede vivir con tanto veneno

La esperanza que me dio tu amor

No me la dio más nadie

Te juro, no miento

No se puede morir con tanto veneno

No se puede dedicar el alma

A acumular intentos

Pesa más la rabia que el cemento

No se puede vivir con tanto veneno

No se puede vivir con tanto veneno

No, ah

No

No

Las De La Intuición lyrics - Shakira

No me preguntes más por mí

Sí ya sabes cuál es la respuesta

Desde el momento en que te vi

Se a lo que voy

Yo me propongo ser de ti

Una víctima casi perfecta

Yo me propongo ser de ti

Un volcán hoy

El amor tal vez

Es un mal común

Y así como ves

Estoy viva aún

Será cuestión de suerte

Creo que empiezo a entender

Despacio, despacio, comienzas a caer

Que nos deseábamos desde antes de nacer

Te siento, te siento, desde antes de nacer

Tengo el presentimiento de que empieza la acción

Adentro, adentro, te vas quedando

Y las mujeres somos las de la intuición

Así, estoy dispuesta a todo amor

Yo te propongo un desliz

Un error convertido en acierto

Yo me propongo ser de ti

Un volcán hoy

El amor tal vez

Es un mal común

Y así como ves

Estoy viva aún

Será cuestión de suerte

Y creo que empiezo a entender

(Despacio, despacio, comienzas a caer)

Nos deseábamos desde antes de nacer

(Te siento, te siento, desde antes de nacer)

Tengo el presentimiento de que empieza la acción

(Adentro, adentro, te vas quedando)

Y las mujeres somos las de la intuición

(Así, estoy dispuesta a todo, amor)

Creo que empiezo a entender

(Despacio, despacio, comienzas a caer)

Nos deseábamos desde antes de nacer

(Te siento, te siento, desde antes de nacer)

Tengo el presentimiento de que empieza la acción

(Adentro, adentro, te vas quedando)

Y las mujeres somos las de la intuición

Las de la intuición

Día de Enero lyrics - Shakira

Te conocí un día de enero

Con la luna en mi nariz

Y como ví que eras sincero

En tus ojos me perdí

Qué torpe distracción

Y qué dulce sensación

Y ahora que andamos por el mundo

Como Eneas y Benitín

Ya te encontré varios rasguños

Que te hicieron por ahí

Pero mi loco amor

Es tu mejor doctor

Voy a curarte el alma en duelo

Voy a dejarte como nuevo

Y todo va a pasar

Pronto verás el sol brillar

Tú más que nadie mereces ser feliz

Ya vas a ver como van sanando

Poco a poco tus heridas

Ya vas a ver como va

La misma vida a decantar la sal que sobra del mar

Y aunque hayas sido un extranjero

Hasta en tu propio país

Si yo te digo ¿Cómo dices tu?

Tú aún dices ¿Qué decís?

Y lloras de emoción oyendo un bandoneón

Y aunque parezcas despistado con ese caminar pausado

Conozco la razón que hace doler tu corazón

Por eso quise hacerte esta canción

Ya vas a ver como van sanando

Poco a poco tus heridas

Ya vas a ver como va

La misma vida a decantar la sal que sobra del mar

Ya vas a ver como van sanando

Poco a poco tus heridas

Ya vas a ver como va

La misma vida a decantar la sal que sobra del mar

Lo Imprescindible lyrics - Shakira

Bleib', Baby, bleib'

Baby geh nie wieder weg

Bleib', Baby, bleib'

Baby geh nie wieder weg

Una máquina

De pensar en tí

Eso es lo que soy

Lo que siempre fuí

Sabes que me está matando esta espera cruel

La resignación es un deseo sin piel

Y cada día llora algo muy dentro de mí

No hay forma lógica de hacer mí vida sin ti

Y aunque me haga la invencible

Lo fatal lo imprescindible

Es que vuelvas a mí, vuelvas a mí, vuelve

El dolor es sofocante

Y ahora todo lo importante

Es que vuelvas a mí, vuelvas a mí, vuelve

No me tortures así

Una máquina

De vivir sin paz

Eso es lo que soy

Desde que no estás

Dices que no tiene caso reaccionar así

Que has hecho tu elección

Que viva y deje vivir

Pero no quiero romper el lazo que me ata a tí

Ten consideración y no me dejes sufrir

Y aunque me haga la invencible

Lo fatal lo imprescindible

Es que vuelvas a mí, vuelvas a mí, vuelve

El dolor es sofocante

Y ahora todo lo importante

Es que vuelvas a mí, vuelvas a mí, vuelve

No me tortures así

Bleib', Baby, bleib'

Baby geh nie wieder weg

Bleib', Baby, bleib'

Baby geh nie wieder weg

Y aunque me haga la invencible

Lo fatal lo imprescindible

Es que vuelvas a mí, vuelvas a mí, vuelve

El dolor es sofocante

Y ahora todo lo importante

Es que vuelvas a mí, vuelvas a mí, vuelve

No me tortures así

La Tortura (Shaketon Remix) lyrics - Shakira (feat. Alejandro Sanz)

[Shakira:]

AAaaay... AAaaay

Eso a otro perro con ese hueso

Y nos decimos adiós

No pido que todos los días sean de sol

No pido que todos los viernes sean de fiesta

Tampoco te pido que vuelvas rogando perdón

Si lloras con los ojos secos y hablando de ella

Ay amor me duele tanto

[Sanz:]

Me duele tanto

[Shakira:]

Que te fueras sin decir a dónde

Ay amor fue una tortura

Perderte

[Sanz:]

Yo sé que no he sido un santo

Pero lo puedo arreglar, amor

[Shakira:]

No sólo de pan vive el hombre

Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]

Sólo de errores se aprende

Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]

Mejor te guardas todo

Eso a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós

[Sanz:]

Con siete velas te invocaré

[Shakira:]

AAaaay... AAaaay

[Sanz:]

Cosita bella, coje otra vela

[Shakira:]

AAaaay

A otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós

No puedo pedir que el invierno perdone a un rosal

No puedo pedir a los olmos que entreguen peras

No puedo pedirle lo eterno a un simple mortal

Y andar arrojando a los cerdos miles de perlas

[Sanz:]

Ay amor me duele tanto, me duele tanto

Que no creas más en mis promesas

[Shakira:]

Ay amor

[Sanz:]

Es una tortura

[Shakira:]

Perderte

[Sanz:]

Yo sé que no he sido un santo

Pero lo puedo arreglar, amor

[Shakira:]

No sólo de pan vive el hombre

Y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]

Sólo de errores se aprende

Y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]

Mejor te guardas todo

Eso a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós

Eso a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós

[Sanz:]

Oye negrita mira!

Pierdes mi amor

Pierdes mi amor

Oye mi negra

[Shakira:]

Aaaay

[Sanz:]

Yo sólo soy un hombre arrepentido

Eso a otro perro con ese hueso y nos decimos adiós

Yo sé que no he sido un santo

Y es que no estoy hecho de cartón

[Shakira:]

No solo de pan vive el hombre y no de excusas vivo yo

[Sanz:]

Sólo de errores se aprende y hoy sé que es tuyo mi corazón

[Shakira:]

AAaaay... AAaaay... AAaaay... Ay Ay

Ay todo lo que he hecho por tí

Fue una tortura perderte

Me duele tanto que sea así

Sigue llorando perdon

Yo yo no voy a llorar... por tí

Knock On My Door lyrics - Shakira

I'm gonna obey all your wishes

As if they were orders

I'm gonna dye your body in kisses

While we're growing older

I'll be there to beat your fears

In all the three hundred sixty five days a year

So this is what I say

Knock on my door

You know I'll be in town

Come ask for more

Don't let me down

What is off what is on

What is left what is gone

I'm gonna give it all for you baby

You can consider it done

Knock on my door

You know I'll be in town

Come ask for more

Don't let me down

What is off what is on

What is left what is gone

I'm gonna give it all for you baby

You can consider it done

I'm gonna live all my Mondays

Like the sunniest Sundays

I'm gonna go through life every moment

Thinking of you always

And again we'll beat our fears

There's only three hundred sixty five days a year

So this is what I say

Knock on my door

You know I'll be in town

Come ask for more

Don't let me down

What is off what is on

What is left what is gone

I'm gonna give it all for you baby

You can consider it done

Knock on my door

You know I'll be in town

Come ask for more

Don't let me down

What is off what is on

What is left what is gone

I'm gonna give it all for you baby

You can consider it done

Knock on my door

Knock on my door

Don't let me down

You know I'll be in town

Don't let me down down down

Don't don't don't don't don't

I'll be in town

I'll be in town

You know I'll be in town

Pídeme El Sol lyrics - Shakira

(Spanish Version of "Knock On My Door")

Voy a volar en la vida

A favor del viento

Voy a encontrar la salida

O si no la invento

Y después iré por ti

Se agota el tiempo

Y quiero hacerte muy feliz:

Tú sólo dame un "sí"

Pídeme el sol y te lo traigo ya

Ven, pide más y lo tendrás

Lo que fue, lo que es

Lo que está por pasar

Lo que bajó hoy luego irá a subir

Para volver a bajar

Pídeme el sol y te lo traigo ya

Ven, pide más y lo tendrás

Lo que fue, lo que es

Lo que está por pasar

Lo que bajó hoy luego irá a subir

Para volver a bajar

Voy a vivir los segundos

Como si fueran horas

Y navegar por el mundo

Como sobre olas

Y después iré por ti

Se agota el tiempo

Y quiero hacerte muy feliz:

Tú sólo dame un "sí"

Pídeme el sol y te lo traigo ya

Ven, pide más y lo tendrás

Lo que fue, lo que es

Lo que está por pasar

Lo que bajó hoy luego irá a subir

Para volver a bajar

Pídeme el sol y te lo traigo ya

Ven, pide más y lo tendrás

Lo que fue, lo que es

Lo que está por pasar

Lo que bajó hoy luego irá a subir

Para volver a bajar

Pídeme el sol

Pídeme el sol

El sol

El sol

El sol

Pídeme el sol, y te lo traigo ya

Pídeme el sol

Y te lo traigo ya

Y te lo traigo ya

Ask For More lyrics - Shakira

I'd rather dance in the air than lie on the ground

I'd rather open my ears than shut out the sound

Travel to the ends of the earth, and tell you what I found

I'd rather kneel down and pray than scream at the sun

Prefer to know than to hide from my skeletons

I don't want to sit down and cry while watching others run

If I missed the bus more than once, I'm not the only one

Don't wanna wait around for things to come to me

'Cause when my hands are tied, they struggle to be free

And if they steal my eyes, I'll find a new way to see

The world's forever turning

And there's a thought that never stops burning

If I'm pounding at your door

It's because I'm here to ask for more

The world's forever turning

And there's a thought that never stops burning

If I'm pounding at your door

It's because I'm here to ask for more

Prefer a thousand "hellos" to just one "goodbye"

Prefer the pain of the truth to a pretty lie

Listen to the words in my head, although they may not rhyme

Listen to the voice in my heart, some days it's so sublime

Don't wanna wait around for things to come to me

'Cause when my hands are tied, they struggle to be free

And if they steal my eyes, I'll find a new way to see

The world's forever turning

And there's a thought that never stops burning

If I'm pounding at your door

It's because I'm here to ask for more

The world's forever turning

And there's a thought that's always burning

If I'm pounding at your door

It's because I'm here to ask for more

The world's forever turning

And there's a thought that never stops burning

If I'm pounding at your door

It's because I'm here to ask for more

The world's forever turning

And there's a thought that's always burning

If I'm pounding at your door

It's because I'm here to ask for more

Pide Más lyrics - Shakira

(Spanish Version of "Ask for More")

Prefiero toda la miel a un gramo de sal

Prefiero un raro comienzo a un mal final

Y si se trata de dormir prefiero despertar

Prefiero el sol a una lámpara de neón

Prefiero mil bienvenidas a un adiós

Prefiero quedarme a escuchar entera esta canción

Por si en una estrofa me llego a tropezar con Dios

Y bailar sin parar, que hacerme en un rincón

Y sentarme a esperar y a perder la ilusión

Y si hablo sin pensar entonces es mucho mejor

El mundo es una esfera

Gira y vuelve dónde se espera

Mis ojos mirarán cosas que ni alcanzo a imaginar

El mundo es una esfera

Gira y vuelve dónde se espera

Cuando alguien pide más sabe que quien busca va a encontrar

Prefiero un mundo a un pedazo de souvenir

Seguir la lucha dejar de sobrevivir

Prefiero olvidar lo que dí a lo que recibí

Y aunque rompa mi corazón volver a amarte así

Y bailar sin parar como me gusta a mi

Y sentarme a esperar si no me iré de aquí

Y si es que hablo demás, tú vive y deja vivir

El mundo es una esfera

Gira y vuelve dónde se espera

Mis ojos mirarán cosas que ni alcanzo a imaginar

El mundo es una esfera

Gira y vuelve dónde esperas

Cuando alguien pide más sabe que quien busca va a encontrar

El mundo es una esfera

Gira y vuelve dónde se espera

Mis ojos mirarán cosas que ni alcanzo a imaginar

El mundo es una esfera

Gira y vuelve dónde esperas

Cuando alguien pide más sabe que quien busca va a encontrar

Ask For More (Instrumental) lyrics - Shakira

(Instrumental)

Inevitable (English Version) lyrics - Shakira

Always felt that it was true

Making coffee I'm a mess

Don't know anything 'bout football

Been unfaithful once or twice

Cannot even win at dice

As for watches, I don't use one

To be completely honest

No one thinks of you

Quite the way I do

It's all the same to you now

To be true I must confess

I never sleep at twelve or less

Never take a bath on Sundays

Since I'm telling you so much

I cry in earnest once a month

When the weather turns to freezing

With me nothing is easy

Only you can tell

You know me so well

Without you everything's a bore

The sky is seeing a million raindrops fall

The hours seem to crawl

And every day that passes is the same

Just like yesterday

I can't find any way to forget you because

To keep on loving you is inevitable

Always felt that it was true

When we talk about us two

I should be the first revealing

Sure you know what's going on

Nothing's better since you're gone

At the very least I'm breathing

And you won't be returning

Nothing left to tell

I know you so well

What will I ever do without you?

The sky is seeing a million raindrops fall

The hours seem to crawl

And every day that passes is just the same

Just like yesterday

I can't find any way to forget you because

To keep on loving you is inevitable

Always felt that it was true

When we talk about us two

I should be the first revealing
