Rubén Blades Shamed Into Love song lyrics

I fear, my dear

We've forgotten the things strangers do

If we could look back to the terrible thrill that we knew

Am I imagining a world without you?

Must we be shamed into love?

What can I say?

Will you pardon my stupid embrace?

Sometimes I'm desperate while you're wiping

The smile from your face am I surrendering, or am I replaced?

Must we be shamed into love?

Shamed into love, you're once a fool for having it

Twice for letting it go, somewhere, my love

There's a feeling deep inside of me

That I can't let go, oh, you'll never know

But then, my darling, I've forbidden myself to confess

I've looked around now but I always return to your face

In a world where everything I once cursed, I bless

It must be you who shamed me into love

Must we be shamed into love?
