"Ask For More" lyrics - SHAKIRA

I'd rather dance in the air
Than lie on the ground
I'd rather my open my ears
Than shut out the sound
Travel to the ends of the Earth
And tell you what I found

I rather kneel down and pray
Than scream at the sun
Prefer to know than
To hide from my skeletons
I don't want to sit down and cry
While watching others run

If I missed the bus more than once
I'm not the only one
Don't wanna wait around
For things to come to me
'Cause when my hands are tied
They struggle to be free
And if they steal my eyes
I'll find a new way to see

[Chorus:]
The world's forever turning
And there's a thought that never stops burning
If I'm pounding at your door
It's because I'm here to ask for more
The world's forever turning
And there's a thought that never stops burning
If I'm pounding at your door
It's because I'm here to ask for more

Prefer a thousand hellos
To just one goodbye
Prefer the pain of the truth
To a pretty lie
Listen to the words in my head
Although they may not rhyme

Listen to the voice in my heart
Somedays it's so sublime
Don't wanna wait around
For things to come to me
'Cause when my hands are tied
They struggle to be free
And if they steal my eyes
I'll find a new way to see

[Chorus:]
The world's forever turning
And there's a thought that never stops burning
If I'm pounding at your door
It's because I'm here to ask for more
The world's forever turning
And there's a thought that's always burning
If I'm pounding at your door
It's because I'm here to ask for more

The world's forever turning
And there's a thought that never stops burning
If I'm pounding at your door
It's because I'm here to ask for more
The world's forever turning
And there's a thought that's always burning
If I'm pounding at your door
It's because I'm here to ask for more
