something really old...

I stumbled upon this song that I have not heard for a VERY long time. It's from Shakira's very first album back in 1992 titled "Magia". The song is also called "Magia" and here are the lyrics for it. It's a song that Shakira wrote when she was very young, not even 13 years old. I think it's good writing for such a young girl.

Magic, I feel magic,
a little while ago something new was born in me
Magic, I feel magic,
when you speak to me I tremble, that's how it is
I'm always walking penniless,
I don't hear what people tell me
I only think that you're so close to me

Magic, your look,
like the moon, overwhelms me till the end
Magic, I feel magic,
if I'm with you in the desert I'm in happiness
They even say that I'm seeing ghosts or that I'm too perplexed
and the reason is that I love you till the end

And it's like this that I can't even fall asleep,
I pass the day thinking of you
I live bewitched because of you,
and it's like this that I only live for you, I don't know how to study
I don't know how to leave, I don't know what spell you've cast upon me

Magic, I feel magic,
like how the moon overwhelms me till the end
Magic, I feel magic,
if I'm with you in the desert I'm in happiness

And it's like this that I can't even fall asleep,
I pass the day thinking of you
I live bewitched because of you,
and it's like this that I only live for you, I don't know how to study
I don't know how to leave, I don't know what spell you've cast upon me
And it's like this...

music, shakira
