Shakira - Poem To A Horse lyrics

You`re too far to bring you across

Too high to see below

Just hanging on your daily dose

And you never needed anyone

But they`re rolling papers for your grass

How can you give what you don`t have?

You keep on aiming for the top

And quit before you sweat a drop

Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot

You start out playing with yourself

You get more fun within your shell

Nice to meet you but I gotta go my way

Chorus:

I leave again

Cuz I`ve been waiting in vain

But you`re so in love with yourself

If I say my heart is sore

Sounds like a cheap metaphor

So I won`t repeat it no more

I`d rather eat my soup with a fork

Or drive a cab to New York

Cuz to talk to you is harder work

So what`s the point of wasting all my words

If it`s just the same or even worse

Than reading poems to a horse

You keep on aiming for the top

And quit before you sweat a drop

Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot

I bet you`ll find someone like you

Cuz there`s a foot for every shoe

I wish you luck but I`ve got other things to do
