Whenever, Wherever

Artist: Shakira

Album: Laundry Service

Song Length: 3:17

George's Thoughts: This is a very popular Samba song at parties, and an enjoyable song as well. Lively, sexy and fun. The chart hit is a little too fast for competition use. A regulation-speed strict-tempo version is available on Dancelife's "Dance Charts Step 2" album that meets regulation tempo for competitions at 53bpm.

Song Lyrics:

Lucky you were born that far away
So we could both make fun of distance
Lucky that I love a foreign land for
The lucky fact of your existence
Baby I would climb the Andes solely
To count the freckles on your body
Never could imagine there were only
Ten million ways to love somebody

Le ro lo le lo le,
Le ro lo le lo le
Can't you see... I'm at your feet

[Chorus:]
Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
Thereover, hereunder,
You'll never have to wonder
We can always play by ear
and that's the deal my dear

Lucky that my lips not only mumble
They spill kisses like a fountain
Lucky that my breasts are small and humble
So you don't confuse them with mountains
Lucky I have strong legs like my mother
To run for cover when I need it
And these two eyes that for no other
The day you leave will cry a river

Le ro lo le lo le,
Le ro lo le lo le
At your feet, I'm at your feet

[Chorus]

Le ro lo le lo le,
Le ro lo le lo le
We can fly, say it again

Lo ro lo le lo le lo le

Tell me one more time
That you'll live
Lost in my eyes

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
Thereover hereunder,
You've got me head over heels
There's nothing left to fear
If you really feel the way I feel

Whenever, wherever
We're meant to be together
I'll be there and you'll be near
And that's the deal my dear
They're over, you're under
You've got me head over heels
There's nothing left to fear
If you really feel the way I feel
