歌词

[Verse 1]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

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

But that's the deal, my dear

[Verse 2]

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

[Pre-Chorus]

Le ro lo le lo le, le ro lo le lo le

At your feet

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

But that's the deal, my dear

[Bridge]

Le ro le le lo le, le ro le le lo le

Think out loud, say it again

Le ro lo le lo le lo le

Tell me one more time

That you'll live

Lost in my eyes

[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'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

Thereover, hereunder

You've got me head over heels

There's nothing left to fear

If you really feel the way I feel

多添一点：

今天分享一首Shakira的《Whenever, Wherever》。

这首歌是哥伦比亚创作型歌手Shakira为她的第一张英文专辑《Laundry Service》创作的流行歌曲。这是她职业生涯中仅次于《Hips Don't Lie》(2006)的第二大最成功歌曲。另一个西语版本也是西语音乐史上第64大最成功歌曲。这首歌还在29个国家的排行榜上名列前茅，包括她的祖国哥伦比亚、拉丁美洲大部分地区、欧洲和大洋洲。这首歌在全球的销量超过850万张，成为2001年最热门的歌曲。这首歌被认为是夏奇拉的代表作之一。

这首歌由Shakira和蒂姆·米切尔(Tim Mitchell)创作并制作，格洛丽亚·埃斯特芬(Gloria Estefan)也参与了创作。

这是一首融合了安第斯音乐元素的拉丁流行歌曲。以c#小调为主调，并加入了charango（夏朗戈吉他）和排箫元素。歌词中描述了夏Shakira是多么幸运，能够找到自己的恋人。她发行的另一个版本是“Suerte”在西班牙语中的意思是运气。在接受VH1采访时 ，Shakira透露，将歌曲从其原始形式（西班牙语）翻译成英语并不容易。这是因为她当时正在学习英语。接下来看看她的简介。

Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll(生于1977年2月2日)，简称夏奇拉，格莱美奖得主，哥伦比亚创作型歌手、音乐家、作曲家、唱片制作人、音乐视频导演、舞蹈家、编舞、乐器演奏家和慈善家。她的专辑全球销量超过8000万张。她曾获得2项格莱美奖，10项拉丁格莱美奖，7项公告牌音乐奖，27项拉丁公告牌奖，并获得金球奖提名。她自1990年进入音乐界，并于次年发行了首张专辑。作为一个神童，她四岁就开始写诗和歌曲，十岁自学吉他。她同父异母的兄弟姐妹的死亡和她父亲对此的反应,激发了她在8岁时写了她的第一首完整的歌曲。
