Guantanamera Lyrics

Celia Cruz

There's something in your eyes
That's far too revealing
Why must it be like this
A love without feeling
Something's wrong with you, I know
I see it in your eyes
Believe me when I say
It's gonna be okay
I told from the start
I won't be demanding (I won't be demanding)
If you'll have a change of heart
I'll be understanding (I'll be understanding)
When love becomes a broken heart
And dreams begin to die
Believe me when I say
We'll work it out someway
Chorus
I'll never try to hold you back
I wouldn't try controlling you
If it's what you want, it's what I want
I want what's best for you
And if it's something else that you're looking for
I'll be the first to help you try
Believe me when I say
It's hard to say goodbye
We've lost that loving touch
We used to feel so much
I tried to hide the truth that's in my eyes
(A love without feeling)
And when I feel we're not in love
I know I'm losing you
Believe me when I say
We'll work it out someway
Chorus
If it's what you want, it's what I want
I want what's best for you
Chorusx2
