Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Así) - Shakira

Song - Eyes Like Yours (Ojos Así)

Artist - Shakira

Album - Laundry Service

Epic (July 23 1999)

Lyrics :-

Oh, you know I have seen

A sky without sun

A man with no nation

Saints, captive in chains

A song with no name

For lack of imagination 

Ya he...

And I have seen

Darker than ebony

Ya he Ya he Ya la he

And now it seems, that I

Without your eyes could never be

My one desire, all I aspire

Is in your eyes forever to live

Traveled all over the seven oceans

There is nothing that I wouldn't give

Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut

Looking for someone comparing to you

Tearing down windows and doors

And I could not find eyes like yours

Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut

Looking for someone comparing to you

Tearing down windows and doors

And I could not find eyes like yours

Oh, You know I seen

A woman of means

In rags and begging for pleasure

Crossed a river of salt

Just after I rode

A ship that's sunk in the desert

Ya he Ya he Ya la he

And I have seen

Darker than ebony

Ya he Ya he Ya la he

And now it seems, that I

Without your eyes could never be

My one desire, all I aspire

Is in your eyes forever to live

Traveled all over the seven oceans

There is nothing that I wouldn't give

Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut

Looking for someone comparing to you

Tearing down windows and doors

And I could not find eyes like yours

Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut

Looking for someone comparing to you

Tearing down windows and doors

And I could not find eyes like yours

rabboussamai fikarrajaii 

fi ainaiha aralhayati 

ati ilaika min haza lkaaouni 

arjouka labbi labbi nidai 

Came from Bahrein, got to Beirut

Looking for someone comparing to you

Tearing down windows and doors

And I could not find eyes like yours

Poem To A Horse

Song - Poem To A Horse

Artist - Shakira

Album - Laundry Service

Epic (2002)

Lyrics :-

You're to far to bring you close

And too high to see below

just hangin' on your daily dose

I know you never needed anyone

But the rolling papers for your grass

How can you give what you don't have?

You keep on aiming for the top 

And quit before you sweat a drop 

Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot 

You start out playing with yourself 

You get more fun within your shell 

Nice to meet you but I gotta go my way 

(Chorus:)

I'll leave again 

Cuz I've been waiting in vain 

But you're so in love with yourself 

If I say my heart is sore 

Sounds like a cheap metaphor 

So I won't repeat it no more 

I'd rather eat my soup with a fork 

Or drive a cab in New York 

Cuz to talk to you is harder work 

So what's the point of wasting all my words 

If it's just the same or even worse 

Than reading poems to a horse 

You keep on aiming for the top 

And quit before you sweat a drop 

Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot 

I bet you'll find someone like you 

Cuz there's a foot for every shoe 

I wish you luck but I've got other things to do

I'll leave again 'cause I've

Been waiting in vain

But you're so in love with yourself

If I say my heart is sore

Sounds like a cheap metaphor

So I won't repeat it no more

Te Dejo Madrid - Shakira

Epic (2002)

Lyrics :-

uh... ah ah 

si, ya es hora de esconder

del mundo el dolor

bajo la piel

yo se que estare bien

los gatos como yo

caen de pie

no quiero

jugar mi suerte por ti

y no puedo

Con V pequeña vivir

pronto estare de aqui

muy muy lejos

(coro)

ahi me voy otra vez

ahi te dejo Madrid

Tus rutinas de piel

y tus ganas de huir

yo no quiero cobardes 

que me hagan sufrir

mejor le digo adios 

a tu boca de anis

si, ya es hora de limpiar

las manchas de miel 

sobre el mantel

yo nunca supe actuar

mis labios se ven

muertos de sed

no quiero

dejarlo todo al azar

entiendo

que he comenzado a estorbar

pronto estare de ti

muy muy lejos

(coro)

ahi me voy otra vez

ahi te dejo Madrid

Tus rutinas de piel

y tus ganas de huir

yo no quiero cobardes 

que me hagan sufrir

mejor le digo adios

a tu boca de anis

ah, aah 

(coro x2)

ay te dejo madrid

madrid

a tu boca de anis

a tu boca de anis

The One - Shakira

Song - The One

Artist - Shakira

Album - Laundry Service

Epic (2002)

Lyrics :-

So I find a reason to shave my legs 

Each single morning 

So I count on someone on 

Friday nights to take me dancing

And then to church on Sundays 

To plant more dreams

And someday think of kids 

Or maybe just to save a little money

(Chorus:)

You're the one I need 

The way back home is always long 

But if you're close to me I'm holding on 

You're the one I need 

My real life has just begun 

Cause there's nothing like your smile made of sun 

In the world full of strangers 

You're the one I know

So I learned to cook 

and finally lose my kitchen phobia 

So I've got the arms to cuddle in 

When there's a ghost or a muse 

That brings insomnia

To buy more thongs 

And write more happy songs 

It always takes a little help from someone

(Chorus 2X)

You're the one I need 

You're the one I need 

With you my real life has just begun

You're the one I need 

You're the one I need 

Nothing like your smile made of sun 

Nothing like your love

Nothing like your love

Nothing like your love

Whenever, Wherever - Shakira

Song - Whenever, Wherever

Artist - Shakira

Album - Laundry Service

Epic (2001)

Lyrics :-

Lucky you were born that far away

So we could both make fun of distance

Lucky that I love a foreign man for

The lucky fact of your existence

Baby I would climb the Andes solely

To count the freckles on your body

Never could imagine there were only

Ten million ways to love somebody

Le do, lo le, lo le

Le do, lo le, lo le

Can't you see?

I'm at your feet!

Whenever, wherever

We're meant to be together

I'll be there and you'll be near

And that's the deal my dear

There over, here under

You'll never have to wonder

We can always play by ear

But that's the deal my dear

Lucky that my lips not only mumble

They spill kisses like a fountain

Lucky that my breasts are small and humble

So you don't confuse them with mountains

Lucky I have strong legs like my mother

To run for cover when I need it

And these two eyes are for no other

The day you leave will cry a river

Le do, lo le, lo le

Le do, lo le, lo le

At your feet

I'm at your feet!

Whenever, wherever

We're meant to be together

I'll be there and you'll be near

And that's the deal my dear

There over, here under

You'll never have to wonder

We can always play by ear

But that's the deal my dear

Le do, lo le, lo le

Le do, lo le, lo le

Think out loud

Say it again

Le do, lo le, lo le, lo le

Tell me one more time

That you'll live

Lost in my eyes

Whenever, wherever

We're meant to be together

I'll be there and you'll be near

And that's the deal my dear

There over, here under

You've got me head over heels

There's nothing left to fear

If you really feel the way I feel

Whenever, wherever

We're meant to be together

I'll be there and you'll be near

And that's the deal my dear

There over, here under

You've got me head over heels

There's nothing left to fear

If you really feel the way I feel

Underneath Your Clothes - Shakira

Song - Underneath Your Clothes

Artist - Shakira

Album - Laundry Service

Epic (April 18 2002)

Lyrics :-

You're a song 

Written by the hands of god

Don't get me wrong cause 

This might sound to you a bit odd

But you own the place

Where all my thoughts go hiding

And right under your clothes

Is where I find them 

Underneath Your Clothes

There's an endless story 

There's the man I chose 

There's my territory

And all the things I deserve

For being such a good girl honey

Because of you

I forgot the smart ways to lie

Because of you

I'm running out of reasons to cry

When the friends are gone

When the party's over 

We will still belong to each other 

Underneath Your Clothes

There's an endless story 

There's the man I chose 

There's my territory

And all the things I deserve

For being such a good girl honey

I love you more than all that's on the planet

Movin' talkin' walkin' breathing

You know it's true 

Oh baby it's so funny

You almost don't believe it

As every voice is hanging from the silence

Lamps are hanging from the ceiling

Like a lady tied to her manners

I'm tied up to this feeling

Underneath Your Clothes

There's an endless story 

There's the man I chose 

There's my territory

And all the things I deserve

For being such a good girl honey

Objection (Tango) - Shakira

Song - Objection (Tango)

Artist - Shakira

Album - Laundry Service

Epic (2002)

Lyrics :-

It's not her fault that she's so irresistible 

But all the damage she's caused isn't fixable 

Every twenty seconds you repeat her name 

But when it comes to me you don't care 

if I'm alive or dead 

So objection I don't wanna be the exception 

To get a bit of your attention 

I love you for free and I'm not your mother 

But you don't even bother 

Objection I'm tired of this triangle 

Got dizzy dancing tango 

I'm falling apart in your hands again 

No way I've got to get away 

Next to her cheap silicon I look minimal 

That's why in front of your eyes I'm invisible 

But you gotta know small things also count 

You better put your feet on the ground 

And see what it's about 

Objection I don't wanna be the exception 

To get a bit of your attention 

I love you for free and I'm not your mother 

But you don't even bother 

Objection I'm tired of this triangle 

Got dizzy dancing tango 

I'm falling apart in your hands again 

No way I've got to get away 

I wish there was a chance for you and me 

I wish you couldn't find a place to be 

Away from here 

This is pathetic and sardonic 

It's sadistic and psychotic 

Tango is not for three 

Was never meant to be 

But you can try it 

Rehearse it 

Or train like a horse 

But don't you count on me 

Don't you count on me boy 

Objection I don't wanna be the exception 

To get a bit of your attention 

I love you for free and I'm not your mother 

But you don't even bother 

Objection I'm tired of this triangle 

Got dizzy dancing tango 

I'm falling apart in your hands again 

No way I've got to get away
