Eyes Like Yours Lyrics
Shakira
Eyes like yours
Oh, you know I have seen
A sky without sun
A man with no nation
Saints captive in chains
A song with no name
For lack of imagination
Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen
Darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
And now it seems that i
With out your eyes could never be
My one desire
All I aspire is in your eyes
Forever to live
Travelled all over the seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldnt give
Came from bahrein
Got to beriut
Looking for someone
Comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
Oh, you know I have seen
A woman of means in rags
And begging for pleasure
Cross the river of salt
Just after I rode a ship that
Sunk in the desert
Ya he ya he ya la he
And I have seen darker than ebony
Ya he ya he ya la he
And now it seems that I without your eyes
Could never be
My one desire all I espire
Is in your eyes forever to live
Travelled all over
The seven oceans
There is nothing that I wouldnt give
Came from bahrein got to beirut
Looking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors and I could
Not find eyes like yours
Rabboussamai fikarrajaii
Fi ainaiha aralhayati
Ati ilaika min haza ikaaouni
Arjouka labbi labbi nidai
Lokking for some one comparing to you
Tearing down windows and doors
And I could not find eyes like yours
