Gloria Estefan

Oye Mi Canto

Gloria Estefan


Take me... only for what I am 
You've got a right to speak your mind 
You've gotta take a stand 

No one... has the right to say 
This is right or that is wrong 
It isn't just one way 

Find common ground 
Go in between 
Things aren't always what they seem 

Someday it'll be alright 
Changes happen overnight 

People, let's give each other room 
If we're gonna work it out 
We better make it soon 

Love is... love is such a common word 
When it's pride we mistake for love 
Isn't that absurd 

Why always take 
The upper hand 
It's better to understand 

Someday it'll be alright 
Changes happen overnight 

Someday it'll be alright 
Changes happen overnight 

Oye mi canto 
Oye mi canto 
Oye mi canto 
I believe in love but with no conditions 
Oye mi canto 
And giving in sometimes 
Doesn't make it submission 
Oye mi canto 
Hate is so common it's almost tradition 
Oye mi canto 
Come on let's leave it behind 
And make that transition 
Oye mi canto 
Oye mi canto 
Oye mi canto 
Oye mi canto 
Oye mi canto...
