Gloria Estefan Greatest Hits Lyrics
1.1-2-3

They tell me you're shy boy
But i want you just the same
Don't play innocent with me
You kow it's not just fun and games
When i look into your eyes
So much passion burns inside
But if you need some coaxing
I will do it
Step by step there's nothing to it

1-2-3-4 come on baby say you love me
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11 i'm just gonna keep on counting
Until you are mine

Come out of your shell boy
You know we go like hand in glove
You're afraid of giving in
But i am never giving up on your love
And no matter what it takes
I will steal your heart away
Take a chance for once you won't regret it
Want my love just come and get it

1-2-3-4 come on baby say you love me
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11 i'm just gonna keep on counting
Until you are mine

So no matter what it takes
I will steal your heart away
Take a chance for once you won't regret it
Take my love just come and get it

1-2-3-4 come on baby say you love me
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11 i'm just gonna keep on counting
Until you are mine

1-2-3-4 come on baby
5-6-7 times
You got to give me your love
8-9-10-11 i'm just gonna keep on counting baby
Until you are mine

1-2-3-4
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11

1-2-3-4
5-6-7 times
8-9-10-11


2.Always Tomorrow

I've been alone inside myself, far too long
Never really wanted it that way, but i let it happen
If i could do it all again, my life would be infinitely better
than before
I wouldn't waste a moment
Make time for laughing with my friends
Make love, make music, make amends
Try to make a difference, try to love, try to understand
Instead of just giving up, i'd use the power at my command

(chorus)
That's why there's always tomorrow, to start over again
Things will never stay the same, the only one sure thing is
change.
That's why there's always tommorow

I guess it took a little time, for me to see
The reason i was born into this world,
And what i'd have to go through
For i've finially realized, that i could beinfinitely better
than before, defintely stronger
I'll face whatever comes my way, savor each moment of the day,
Love as many people as i can along the way
Help someone who's given up, if it's just to raise my eyes and
pray

(chorus)

(bridge)

Before your last setting sun
And everything your heart has longed for
Has yet to be (one)
Yes there's always tomorrow though people come and they go
But if you,ve brought some love to their lives
Then you've got something to show


3.Anything For You

Anything for you
Though you're not here
Since you said we're through
It seems like years
Time keeps draggin on and on
And forever's been and gone
Still i can't figure what went wrong

I'd still do anything for you
I'll play your game
You hurt me through and through
But you can have your way

I can pretend each time i see you
That i don't care and i don't need you
And though you'll never see me cryin'
You know inside i feel like dying
And i'd do anything for you
In spite of it all
I've learned so much from you
You made me strong
But don't you ever think that i don't love you
That for one minute i forgot you
But sometimes things don't work out right
And you just have to say goodbye

I hope you find somone to please you
Somone who'll care and never leave you
But if that someone ever hurts you
You just might need a friend to turn to

And i'd do anything for you
I'll give you up
If that's what i should do
To make you happy

I can pretend each time i see you
That i don't care and i don't need you
And though inside i feel like dying
You know you'll never see me crying

Don't you ever think that i don't love you
That for one minute i forgot you
But sometimes things don't work out right
And you just have to say goodbye


4.Can't Stay Away From You

Time flies
When you're having fun
I heard somebody say
But if all i've been is fun
Then baby let me go
Don't wanna be in your way
And i don't wanna be your second choice
Don't wanna be just your friend
You keep telling me that you're not in love
You wanna throw it all away

But i can't stay away form you
I don't wanna let you go
And though it's killing me that's true
There's just some things i can't control

Your love is slipping through my hands
And though i've heard it all before
I know you're telling me the truth
I know it's just no use
But i can't stay away from you

Hold on to every bit of hope, that's all i ever do
Hoping you might change your mind
And call me up to say how much you need me too
And though you're leaving me no other choice
Than to turn and walk away
Look over your shoulder, i'll be there
You can count on me to stay ...

'cause i can't stay away from you
I don't wanna let you go
And though it's killing me that's true
There's just some things i can't control
Your love slipping through my hands
And though i've heard it all before

I know you're telling me the truth
I know it's just no use
But i can't stay away from you

I know you're telling me the truth
I know it's just no use
But i can't stay away from you


5.Christmas Through Your Eyes

Till i had you i didn't know
That i was missing out
Had to grow up and see the world
Through different shades of doubt
Give me one more chance to dream again
One more chance to feel again
Through your young heart
If only for one day let me try

I wanna see christmas through your eyes
I want everything to be the way it used to be
Back to being a child again thinking the world was mine
I wanna see christmas, christmas through your eyes

I see the rain, you see the rainbow hiding in the clouds
Never afraid to let your love show
Won't you show me how
Wanna learn how to believe again
Find the innocence in me again
Through your young heart
Help me find a way, help me try

I wanna see christmas through your eyes
I want everything to be the way it used to be
Back to being a child again thinking the world was kind
I wanna see christmas, christmas through your eyes

I wanna see christmas through your eyes
I want everything to be the way it used to be
Back to being a child again thinking the world was kind
I wanna see christmas, christmas through your eyes

I wanna see christmas
I wanna see christmas, i wanna see christmas through your eyes
I wanna see, i wanna see christmas
I wanna see, i wanna see christmas
I wanna see christmas through your eyes
I wanna see christmas
I want to see christmas
I wanna see christmas through your eyes


6.Coming Out Of The Dark

Why be afraid if i'm not alone
Though life is never easy the rest in unkown
Up to now for me it's been hands against stone
Spent each and every moment
Searching for what to believe

(chorus)
Coming out of the dark, i finally see the light now
It's shinning on me
Coming out of the dark, i know the love that saved me
You're sharing with me

Starting again is part of the plan
And i'll be so much stronger holding your hand
Step by step i'll make it through i know i can
It may not make it easier but i have felt you
Near all the way

(repeat chorus)

Forever, forever i stand on the rock of your love
Forever i'll stand on the rock
Forever, forever i stand on the rock of your love
Love is all it takes, no matter what we face

(chorus out)


7.Conga

Come on , shake your body baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Come on , shake your body baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer

Come on , shake your body baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger
Don't you fight it 'til you tried it, do that conga beat

Everbody gather 'round now
Let your body feel the heat
Don't you worry if you can't dance;
Let the music move your feet

It's the rhythm of the island, and like the sugar cane so sweet
If you want to do the conga, you've got to listen to the beat

Come on , shake your body baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger
Don't you fight it 'til you tried it, do that conga beat

Feel the fire of desire, as you dance the night away
'cause tonight were gonna party, 'til we see the break of day

Better get yourself together, and hold on to what you've got
Once the music hits your system, there's no way your gonna stop

(repeat 3x's) come on , shake your body baby, do the conga
I know you can't control yourself any longer
Feel the rhythm of the music getting stronger
Don't you fight it 'til you tried it, do that conga beat

Come on , shake your body baby, do the conga


8.Don't Wanna Lose You

Sometimes it's hard to make things clear
Or know when to face the truth
And i know when the moment is here
I'll open my heart and show you inside
My love has no pride
I feel with you i've got nothing to hide
So open your eyes and see who i am
And not who you want for me to be
I am only myself, myself

I don't wanna lose you now
We're gonna get through somehow
I don't wanna lose you now or ever
'cause baby i've finally found
The courage to stand my ground
But if you want me, i'll be around forever
We all make mistakes
We all lose our way
But we stood the test of time and i hope
That's the way it will stay

It's all up to you, to tell me to go
'cause it won't be me to walk away
When you're all that i know
And i know that
I don't wanna lose you now
We're gonna get through somehow
I don't wanna lose you now or ever
'cause baby i've finally found
The courage to stand my ground
But if you want me, i'll be around forever


9.Get On Your Feet

You say i know it's a waste of time
There's no use trying
So scared that life's gonna pass you by
Your spirit dying
Not long ago
I could feel your strength and your devotion
What was so clear, is now overcast
With mixed emotions
Deep in your heart is the answer
Find it, i know it will pull you through

Get on your feet
Get up and make it happen
Get on your feet
Stand up and take some action

I think it's true that we've all been through
Some nasty weather
Let's understand that we're here
To handle things together
You gotta keep looking onto tomorrow
There's so much in life
That's meant for you

Get on your feet
Get up and make it happen
Get on your feet
Stand up and take some action
Get on your feet
Don't stop before it's over
Get on your feet
The weight is off your shoulder

Get up and make it happen
Stand up, stand up, stand up and take some action
Gotta get on your feet, yeah, yeah
Don't stop before it's over
Get on your feet
The weight is off your shoulder
Get on your feet
Get up, get up, get up and make it happen
Get on your feet
Stand up , stand up and take some action
Get on your feet


10.Go Away

Go away
Won't you just go away
Go away
Don't you come back one day
Take your stuff
Take all of your precious things
Leave right now
Who knows what tomorrow brings
Stay away
Won't you please stay away
Live your life
But live it real far away
Save yourself
There's no way to get it all
Look around
The writing is on the wall

And when you go
I won't miss you at all
And when you go
I'll be having a ball
You will see
Thoughts of you
Won't ever cross my mind
It's the truth
Don't mean to be unkind
'cause people have the right
To party
And you won't let them
Have their fun
See ya, wouldn't wanna be ya
Auf wiedersehen, au revoir, shalom

Go away
Would you please go away
Go away
You're outta here come what may
Hit the road
Don't bother to say goodbye
Don't care how
Don't even matter why
Yes, people have the right to party
And we're not waiting till you're gone
Ciao, bye bye, hasta la vista
Fare thee well,adios, so long


11.Here We Are

Here we are
Face to face
We forget, time and place
Hold me now
Don't let go
Though it hurts and we both know
The time we spend together's gonna fly
And everything you do to me
Is gonna feel so right
Baby when you're loving me
I feel like i could cry
'cause there's nothing i can do
To keep from loving you

Here we are
All alone
Trembling hearts, beating strong
Reaching out, a breathless kiss
I never thought could feel like this
I want to stop the time from passing by
I wanna close my eyes and feel your lips are touching mine
Baby when you're close to me
I want you more each time
And there's nothing i can do, to keep from loving you

(bridge)
There's nothing i can do
I'm helpless in your arms
Oh baby what you do
I'm in love, this is it
There's no turning back this time
No no no
Here we are
Once again
But this time we're only friends
Funny world
Sometimes lies
Become the game, when love's the prize
And though no one knows what's going on inside
And all the love i feel for you
Is something i should hide
When i have you close to me
The feeling's so sublime
That there's nothing i can do
To keep from loving you
No, no, no, can't keep from loving you baby no, no, no


12.I See Your Smile

I, get a little tongue twisted
Every time i talk to you
When i see you
And i'm so glad that you just missed it
The way i stared to memorize your face
To kiss you in my mind
Love you all the time
'cause when i close my eyes
I still can see your smile
It's bright enough to light my life
Out of my darkest hour
Please believe it's true
When i tell you i love you

I've taken too many chances
Searching for the truth in love
That's in my heart
Tell me if i made the wrong advances
Tell me if i've made you feel ashamed
'cause i know i have to do this
Would you hold my hand right through it
'cause when i close my eyes
I still can see your smile
It's bright enough to light my life
Out of my darkest hour
Please belive it's true
When i tell you i love you

I had to let you know
Just what would happen
Yes, i had to let you know the truth
I know i've got to do this
Would you hold my hand right through it
Would you
'cause when i close my eyes
I still can see your smile
It's bright enough to light my life
Out of my
Darkest hour
Please believe it's true
When i tell you i love you
I know now this is true
When i tell you i love you

14.Words Get In The Way

I realize you're seeing someone new
I don't believe she knows you like i do
Your temperamental moody side, the one you always try to hide
from me

But i know when you have some thing on your mind
You've been trying to tell me for the longest time
And before you break my heart in two,
There's something i've been trying to say to you

But the words get in the way
There's so much i want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes,
We might fall in love again.
I won't even start to cry, and before we say goodbye
I tried to say 'i love you'
But the words got in the way

Your heart has always been an open door
But baby i don't even know you any more
And despite the fact it's hurting me,
I know the time has come to set you free

But the words get in the way
There's so much i want to say
But it's locked deep inside and if you look in my eyes,
We might fall in love again
I won't even start to cry, and before we say goodbye
I tried to say 'i love you', but the words got in the way
I'm trying to say 'i love you'
But the words get in the way
