La Carta

In this letter, I’m sending you my picture
So you can see the smile I wear
I don’t cry or suffer from your forgetting
From dance to dance, I’m smiling everywhere

With this letter, I truly thank you
For leaving me for good, out of your life
What I have now is what I deserve
And no one can take it, no, no
And no one can take away the joy I’ve earned

Shake it over here, shake it over there
Shake it all around, everywhere
Shake it over here, shake it over there
And a few stomping beats here and there

I don’t expect a reply to this letter
But if it comes, I’ll gladly take it
I hope it says you’re living it up
And honestly, life’s treating you right

As a postscript, I’m sending you some advice
If you ignore it, that’s your own problem
Life is short, and the body gets old
Find your light, yeah, yeah, yeah
Find your light and break out of your mold (dancing)

Shake it over here, shake it over there
Shake it all around, everywhere
Shake it over here, shake it over there
And a few stomping beats here and there

Shake it over here, shake it over there
Shake it all around, everywhere
Shake it over here, shake it over there
And a few stomping beats here and there
