Alejandro Sanz:
Hey baby girl
Save your poetry
Keep your poems and cheer to yourself
Shakira:
I’m not asking that everyday be sunny
I’m not asking that there to be a party every Friday
Nor do I ask you come back begging forgiveness
If you’re crying with dry eyes
Speaking about her
Oh my love, it hurts so much
It hurts so much
That you left without saying a word
Oh my love, losing you was torture
Alejandro Sanz:
I know I haven’t been a saint
But I can make it up to you
Shakira:
Man doesn’t live on bread alone
Nor do I live on excuses
Alejandro Sanz:
We only learn from mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours
Shakira:
Better save that for yourself
Take that bone to some other dog
And lets say goodbye
Alejandro Sanz:
I can’t ask winter to spare a rose bush
I can’t ask an elm to bear pears
I can’t ask the eternal of a mere mortal
And go about casting thousands of pearls
Before swine
Alejandro Sanz:
Oh my love, it hurts so much
It hurts so much
That you no longer trust my promises
Oh my love, losing you has been torture
I know I haven’t been a saint
But I can make it up to you
Shakira:
Man doesn’t live on bread lone
Nor do I live on excuses
Alejandro Sanz:
We only learn from mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours
Shakira:
Better save that for yourself
Take that bone to some other dog
And lets say goodbye
Alejandro Sanz:
Listen, baby, don’t you go
Listen, baby, don’t get angry
From Monday to Friday you have my love
Give Saturday to me and you’ll be better off
Listen baby, don’t punish me anymore
Without you, out there I have no peace
I’m just a repentant man,
I’m the bird that returns to its nest
I know I haven’t been a saint
And I’m not made of stone
Shakira:
Man doesn’t live on bread lone
Nor do I live on excuses
Alejandro Sanz:
We only learn from mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours
Shakira:
Oh after all I’ve done for you
It was such torture to lose you
It hurts me so that it’s like this
Keep on crying sorry
I…
I’m not going to cry over you

I like this song. And also, in the video Shakira looks totally slutty!!!  *Throws up* And for some twisted reason, this song reminds me of Miwako from Paradise Kiss. Maybe it wads because I listened to this song for three hours straght while reading Parakiss.  DOY!  And even in english, I don´get the song.  Oh well. *goes back to reading Parakiss* | | 29-08-2005 04:22 maigan_lynn | 4 posts

i LOVE this song... I heard it when I couldn't understand it....now I do!
#1, if I had a body like Shakira you better bet your booty I'd be walkin around in next to nothing...and I can admit that when I say "oooh...she looks trampy" half the time i'm jealous... unless they really do look trampy...SHakira is gorgeous and she couldnt look trampy wearing a brown paper bag with a garter...
#2..i'm pretty sure the song is about her idiot boyfriend cheating on her (mostly on weekends) and him trying to make excuses for it....which she, of course, doesn't allow...
#3 i do agree that the Rageaton or the shaketon version, whichever it's called, is the best one! It just makes me want to dance! 
Thanks for posting the lyrics! | | 01-09-2005 15:21 asesy01 | 2 posts
