Lyrics for Shakira – Dare (La La La)
Hola!
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la laI dare you
(Leggo, leggo, leggo, leggo)All of my life, too late
Till you showed up with perfect timing
Now here we are, you rock it
Our fingers are stuck in the socket
It’s just the nature, a game
Get ready, we’ll do it again
Let’s not recover, time to hangover
When your eyes got me drunk I was soberIs it true that you love me?
I dare you to kiss me
With everyone watching
It’s truth or dare on the dancefloorLa la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Truth or dare on the dancefloor
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
I dare you(Leggo, leggo)
Of all the millions on the planet
You’re the one who’s keeping me on it
You know I like you, ain’t nobody’s business
Your blue Spanish eyes are my witness
It’s just the nature, a game
Get ready, we’ll do it again
Let’s not recover, time to hangover
When your eyes got me drunk I was soberIs it true that you love me?
I dare you to kiss me
With everyone watching
It’s truth or dare on the dancefloorLa la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Truth or dare on the dancefloor
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
I dare youIs it true that you love me?
I dare you to kiss me
With everyone watching
It’s truth or dare on the dancefloorLa la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
