ALEJANDRO SANZ:
Hey baby girl
Save your poetry
Keep your poems and cheer to yourself
SHAKIRA:
I'm not asking that every day be sunny
I'm not asking that there be a party every Friday
Nor do I ask you to come back begging forgiveness
If you're crying with dry eyes,
Speaking about her
Oh my love, it hurts so much
ALEJANDRO SANZ:
It hurts so much
SHAKIRA:
That you left without saying where
Oh my love, it was a torture losing you
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 let's say goodbye
I can't ask winter to spare a rose bush
I can't ask an elm tree 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
SHAKIRA:
Oh my love,
ALEJANDRO SANZ:
it's a torture
SHAKIRA:
losing you
ALEJANDRO SANZ:
I know I haven't been a saint
And I'm not made of stone
SHAKIRA:
Man doesn't live on bread alone
Nor do I live on excuses
ALEJANDRO SANZ:
We only learn from our mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours
SHAKIRA:
Better save that for yourself
Take that bone to some other dog
And let's 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 alone
Nor do I live on excuses
ALEJANDRO SANZ:
We only learn from our mistakes
And today I know my heart is yours
SHAKIRA:
Oh after all I've done for you
It was such a torture to lose you
It hurts me so much that it's like this
Keep on crying sorry but
I…
I'm not going
To cry over you
:)

No importa de que país seas.
Esta canción sonó en la calle de tu casa, en los mercados y hasta en las escuelas. Shakira es un ícono cultural.
