SHAKIRA LYRICS - The Day And The Time

"The Day And The Time"

(feat. Gustavo Cerati)



Who's to say that we always have to agree

I think we can both can take this one mistake

Like some kind of amnesty



Why to love and with such brutality?

We're compatible

Maybe a bit too much

That's our ambiguity



I've cried a thousand storms

I've blown away the clouds

The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine

And listen how

My heart is waiting



This is the day and the time

I wanna believe that we may still have a chance

We took a leap in the dark

And I can see now

How shadows have turned to light



Well, we know

How ephemeral are things

Disillusion takes what illusion gives

What's the use of make believe?



The needles of the clock

Are moving right to left

Pretend we never heard of things we said

Like we've been deaf

And start all over



This is the day and the time

I wanna believe that we may still have a chance

We took a leap in the dark

And I can see now

How shadows have turned to light



Ah...



The heartbeat of the sun is racing mine

And listen how



Ah...



This is the day and the time

I wanna believe that we may still have a chance

We took a leap in the dark

And I can see now

How shadows have turned to light



Ahhh...



The time



Ahhh...

Oooh...



Ahhh...

Oh, oh

Oooooh...
