Shakira Lyrics Poem to a Horse You're too far to bring you close Too high to see below Just hanging on your daily dose You know you never needed anyone But for 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 got more fun within your shell Nice to meet you but I gotta go my way I 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 to New York Coz 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 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 Si Te Vas (If You Go) Translated from Spanish Tell me what you'll do after seeing her body the first time, When your mischievous curiosity dies, When you memorize the parts of her body, And decide again to comback, I won't be here in the same place If she doesn't have more than a pair of fingers in front, And you discover she doesn't brush her teeth well, If she takes the little cents you have, And later she leaves you alone like she wants, I know you'll comback the day, In which she tore you to pieces, Without pillows to cry on, But if you have decided, And you don't want me anymore, Nothing now doesn't matter, Because without you, The world wouldn't be the same to me If you go, if you go, if you leave, My sky becomes gray, If you go, if you go, and you don't, Have to come for me, If you go, if you go, and change me, For that witch, piece of trash, Don't comback anymore, Since I won't be here All new brooms always sweep well, Later you're going to see the bristles be gone, When her wrinkles fold her skin, And her cellulite covers her legs You'll comeback from your hell, With a tail between you horns, Imploring one more time, But for that, then, I'll be here a million nights, Far from this enormous city, Far from you, The world wouldn't be the same to me If you go, if you go, if you leave, My sky becomes gray, If you go, if you go, and you don't, Have to come for me, If you go, if you go, and change me, For that witch, piece of trash, Don't comback anymore, Since I won't be here Whenever, Wherever Lucky you were born that far away So we could both make fun of distance Lucky that I love a foreign land 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 le le le le Le do le le le 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 Thereover hereunder You'll never have to wonder We can always play by ear And 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 le le le le Le do le le le 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 Thereover hereundr You'll never have to wonder We can always play by ear And that's the deal my dear Le do le le le le Le do le le le le Think out loud say it again Le do le le le le lo le le 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 Thereover hereunder You've got me head over heels There's nothing left to fear If you really feel the way I feel |
