Shakira is awesome, isn’t she?

Her latest single, Addicted to You, is very bailable and so good to listen to. She sings pretty fast and it’s a great opportunity for you to try and sing along. After all, today is Friday so ¡vámonos de fiesta!

Addicted To You
Shakira

Debe ser el perfume que usas [It must be the perfume you wear]
O el agua con la que te bañas [or the water you bathe yourself with]
Pero cada cosita que haces [But every little thing you do]
A mí me parece una hazaña [To me it looks like a feat]

Me besaste esa noche [You kissed me that night]
Cual si fuera el único día de tu boca [As if it were the only day of your mouth]
Cada vez que me acuerdo [Every time I remember]
Yo siento en mi pecho el peso de una roca [I feel in my chest the weight of a rock]

Son tus ojos marrones [It’s your brown eyes]
Con esa veta verdosa [With this green vein]
Es tu cara de niño [It’s your boyish face]
Y esa risa nerviosa [And this nervous laughter]

I’m addicted to you
Porque es un vicio tu piel [Because your skin is addictive]
Baby I’m addicted to you
Quiero que te dejes querer [I want you to let yourself be loved]

I’m addicted to you
Porque es un vicio tu piel [Because your skin is addictive]
Baby I’m addicted to you
Quiero que te dejes querer [I want you to let yourself be loved]

Por el puro placer de flotar [Because of the sheer pleasure of floating]
Ahora si me llevó la corriente [Now I’ve been taken away by the stream]
Ya no puedo dormir ni comer [I can’t sleep or eat]
Como lo hace la gente decente [Like decent people do]

Tu recuerdo ha quedado [Your memory is here]
Así como un broche prendido a mi almohada [Like a brooch pinned on my pillow]
Y tú en cambio que tienes memoria de pez [And even though you have a good memory]
No te acuerdas de nada [You don’t remember anything]

Son tus manos de hombre [It’s your manly hands]
Y el olor de tu espalda [And the smell of your back]
Lo que no tiene nombre [What is nameless]
Lo logró tu mirada [Your look managed to do]

I’m addicted to you…
