Toneladas (English Translation) Lyrics – Shakira

Verse 1
In the grand calculation of all things, if we must be precise,
You don’t let me stay unhappy, despite my trials in life.
You’re like a cherubim in flight, soaring through the skies,
Singing love songs close to me, even when the melody stings.

Pre-Chorus
It’s the sun behind your smile
That blinds and dazzles me.
And your skin that brushes mine,
Still unfamiliar, yet so free.
It’s the light behind your eyes
That lit up all my shaded gray.
That light keeps growing stronger,
And I’m happy—so happy.

Chorus
You give me massive tons of love,
You don’t let my heart rest.
You arm me, you disarm me,
You never let me fall so low;
You bring me up.

Verse 2
For me, this world without you
Would be nothing but a bad invention,
A terrible blend of stress and boredom,
Too cruel to mention.
If it were not for you,
I would have given up my dreams.
If it were not for you,
I’d wander like a dog, unseen.

Pre-Chorus
It’s the sun behind your smile
That blinds and dazzles me.
And your skin that brushes mine,
Still unfamiliar, yet so free.
With just half a word from you,
You build me up or break me through.
Together with you I feel stronger,
And I’m happy—so happy.

Chorus
You give me massive tons of love,
You don’t let my heart rest.
You arm me, you disarm me,
You never let me fall so low;
You bring me up.
Massive tons of love,
You don’t let my heart rest.
You arm me, you disarm me,
You never let me fall so low;
You bring me up.
