Poem To A Horse Lyrics - Shakira

1 You're too far to bring you close

2 And too high to see below

3 Just hangin' on your daily dose

4 I know you never needed anyone

5 But the rolling papers for your grass

6 How can you give what you don't have

7 You keep on aiming for the top

8 And quit before you sweat a drop

9 Feed your empty brain

10 With your hydroponic pot

11 Start out playing with yourself

12 You get more fun within your shell

13 Nice to meet you but I gotta go my way

14 I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain

15 But you're so in love with yourself

16 If I say my heart is sore

17 Sounds like a cheap metaphor

18 So I won't repeat it no more

19 I rather eat my soup with a fork

20 Or drive a cab in New York

21 'Cause to talk to you is harder work

22 So what's the point of wasting all my words

23 If it's just the same or even worse

24 Than reading poems to a horse

25 You keep on aiming for the top

26 And quit before you sweat a drop

27 Feed your empty brain

28 With your hydroponic pot

29 I bet you'll find someone like you

30 'Cause there's a foot for every shoe

31 And I wish you luck but I've other things to do

32 I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain

33 But you're so in love with yourself

34 If I say my heart is sore

35 Sounds like a cheap metaphor

36 So I won't repeat it no more

37 I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain

38 If I say my heart is sore

39 Sounds like a cheap metaphor

40 I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain

41 But you're so in love with yourself

42 If I say my heart is sore

43 Sounds like a cheap metaphor

44 So I won't repeat it no more
