LYRICS OF THE SONG THAT SHAKIRA COMPOSED FOR PIQUÉ
The name of the song, “23”, responds to the athlete’s age when Shakira met him. Below is the full lyrics of the song.
“Everyone needs an anchor
Of something that keeps you firm,
of an incentive
someone to fight for
Because no one really needs too much space
A couple of years ago I was lonely
I used to think that God didn’t exist
But then you looked at me with those blue eyes
And my agnosticism turned to dust
how well you know me
I don’t care if the rest don’t
I don’t care, no
as long as you Love Me
As long as we have each other
I knew we had something
From the moment I met you I knew we had something in common
No one thought it could be true
Hey, do you believe in destiny?
‘Cause what I do, I’ve done before with you
When you were only 23
God knows I’m an excellent dancer
My feet can move to the rhythm of the music we listen to
But there were times I asked for answers
When he was acting mysterious.
There were nights that I was crying
Because I was sure that things were not going to change
But then you came along and saw me smile
You came like an angel, in a wonderful and strange way
and then you touched me
It’s like you were made for me, oh
Like everything, this was meant to be true, oh
And I was sure that I would love you
And that we’d always have each other
I knew we had something
From the moment I met you I knew we had something in common
No one thought it could be true
Hey, do you believe in destiny?
‘Cause what I do, I’ve done before with you
When you were only 23
I always thought that I could be fine, but I was wrong
It was you, a piece that I needed
And I couldn’t do it without you, it would be fun
I found you and life was suddenly easy
There’s no worry now
there is no resentment
I knew we had something
From the moment I met you I knew we had something in common
No one thought it could be true
Hey, do you believe in destiny?
‘Cause what I do, I’ve done before with you
When you were only 23″
