Shamed into Love - Rubén Blades

I fear, my dear

We’ve forgotten the things strangers do

If we could look back

To the terrible thrill that we knew

Am i imagining a world without you?

Must we be shamed into love?

What can i say?

Will you pardon my stupid embrace?

Sometimes i’m desperate

While you’re wiping the smile from your face

Am i surrendering, or am i replaced?

Must we be shamed into love?

Shamed into love

You’re once a fool for having it

Twice a fool for letting it go

Somewhere my love there’s a feeling deep inside of me

That i can’t let go

Oh you’ll never know

But then my darling

I’ve forbidden myself to confess

I’ve looked around now

But i always return to your face

In a world where everything

I once cursed, i bless

It must be you who shamed me into love

Must we be shamed into love?
