Shakira "23" lyrics

23

Everybody needs an anchorA little something that makes you stayAn incentiveSomeone to fight forCause no one really needs so much spaceA couple years ago I was lonelyI used to think that there was no GodBut then you looked at me with your blue eyesAnd my agnosticism turned into dustHow well you know meThat I don’t care if the rest don’tIt doesn’t matter to me, noAs long as you love meAs long as we still have each other

I knew we had somethingFrom the moment I met youI knew we had somethingNo one thought it could be trueHey do you believeDo you believe in destiny?‘Cause I do as I did thenWhen you were only 23

God knows that I’m a good dancerMy feet can move to the music he playsBut there were times I asked for an answerWhen he was acting in mysterious waysThere were nights that I stayed up cryingCause I was certain that things wouldn't changeBut then you came and I saw you smilingJust like an angel, so beautifully strange

And then you touched meIt's like you were made for me, ohLike it was all meant to be, ohAnd I was sure that you would love meAnd that we'd always have each other

I knew we had somethingFrom the moment I met youAnd I knew we had somethingNo one thought it could be trueHey do you believeDo you believe in destiny?'Cause I do as I did thenWhen you were only 23

Always thought that I was fine but I was wrongIt was you, that one piece I was missingAnd I could do without you but it'd be no funI found you and life was suddenly easyThere ain't no worries nowThere ain't no feeling down

I knew we had somethingFrom the moment I met youAnd I knew we had somethingNo one thought it could be trueHey do you believeDo you believe in destiny?'Cause I do as I did thenWhen you were only 23
