Shakira – Toneladas Lyrics (English Translation)

(Verse 1)
In the grand calculation of everything,
You never let me stay sad, through all the suffering.
You’re like a cherubim, flying endlessly high,
Singing love songs near me, even when they make me cry.

(Pre-Chorus)
It’s the sun behind your smile,
That blinds and dazzles me all the while.
And your skin that brushes against mine,
Still feels new, still feels divine.
It’s the light behind your eyes,
That lit up all my darkened skies.
And that light is shining stronger, and I’m happy, so happy now.

(Chorus)
You give me massive tons of love,
You never let my heart rest above.
You arm me, then you disarm me,
You never let me fall so low, you lift me high and free.

(Verse 2)
This world without you would be a bad invention,
A terrible mix of stress and boredom, no redemption.
If it were not for you, I would have left my dreams behind,
If it were not for you, like a stray dog I’d wander blind.

(Pre-Chorus)
It’s the sun behind your smile,
That blinds and dazzles me all the while.
And your skin that brushes against mine,
Still feels new, still feels divine.
Only you, with just half a word,
Build me up or leave me blurred.
Together with you I feel stronger, and I’m happy, so happy now.

(Chorus)
You give me massive tons of love,
You never let my heart rest above.
You arm me, then you disarm me,
You never let me fall so low, you lift me high and free.
Massive tons of love,
You never let my heart rest above.
You arm me, then you disarm me,
You never let me fall so low, you lift me high and free.
