Looking For Paradise

I have a new favorite song.  A song that speaks to my heart.  And yes it's the song that plays as soon as you open up my blog. 

I don't know if you've noticed, but recently many of the new songs out there have a little bit of Spanish in them and I love the change!  It gives it a really nice feel and beat to it. :)

This new song that came out oh... I don't know when, but it's pretty recent.  Alicia Keys and Alejandro Sanz sing in it; and I love it!  It's titled "Looking for Paradise".  

Everybody is looking for their little place of paradise; whether it's being with your loved one, your family,  being outside on a nice fall afternoon jumping on the pile of leaves, enjoying some nice hot cocoa curled up on couch while watching your favorite movie...  Some would say the sweet taste of chocolate is paradise!  Whatever it may be, we all have our little paradise, and it's in those moments when we feel a little down when we should seek and take comfort in it.  And not only when we feel down but always! 

For me, dancing is my paradise.  I can't even try to explain the way I feel when I dance.  When I dance, I completely forget about the chaos and difficulties; it's just me and the feel of the beat.  I also have a sweet tooth and so chocolate is also in my paradise for sure. :)  My paradise changes everynow and then depending on my needs and feelings, but my paradise is always a place of freedom and happiness.  A place of giggling and fun.  A place where I find peace.

"Looking for Paradise"

Everybody say oh oh oh oh


Driving in a fast car
Trying to get somewhere
Don´t know where I´m going
But i gotta get there


A veces me siento perdido
Inquieto, solo y confundido
Entonces me ato a las estrellas
Y al mundo entero le doy vueltas


I'm singing for somebody like you
Sorta like me baby
Yo canto para alguien como tú
Pon la oreja, nena


Oh oh oh oh…


Estoy buscando ese momento
La música, que cuando llega
Me llena con su sentimiento
Con sentimiento, vida llena


Walking down the sideway
Looking for innocence
Trying to find my way
Trying to make some sense


Yo canto para alguien como tú
Sólo como tú, baby


I'm singing for somebody like you
What about you?
I'm singing for someone
Someone like you

Tú, dime a quién le cantas
'Cause there's something about you there
Speaks to my heart
Speaks to my soul


I'm singing for someone
Sorta like you
Yo canto para alguien
Someone like you, someone like me
Sólo como tú, oh, my sister

Todo el mundo va buscando ese lugar
Looking for paradise


Oh oh oh oh…


A ese corazón herido
La música le da sentido
Te damos con la voz tus alas
Le damos a tus pies camino


Oh is anybody out there
Feel like i feel
Trying to find a better way
So we can heal


I'm singing for somebody like you
Sorta like me baby
Yo canto para alguien como tú
Sólo como tú
What about you?


Yo canto para ti
I'm singing for someone
Yo canto para alguien
'Cause there's something about you there
Speaks to my heart
Speaks to my soul


I'm singing for someone
I'm singing
Sorta like you
Yo canto para alguien
Someone like you, someone like me
Sólo como tú, oh, my sister

Todo el mundo va buscando ese lugar
Looking for paradise

So what is your paradise?
