Smooth- Santana featuring Rob Thomas

Posted on February 25th, 2008 in Matchbox 20, Song of the Day by Tatertot

SantanaRob ThomasMy mom’s favorite song is “Smooth” by Santana featuring Rob Thomas. She absolutely loves Rob Thomas. I like this song also. What my really likes about him, besides his looks, is the way he pronounces his words. I don’t know what it is but he has a certain appeal in the way he sings the lyrics. Santana doesn’t sing in this song but he does do an amazing guitar solo. He is the best guitarist I have ever heard. My mom told me that Rob Thomas actually met his wife doing the music video for this song. She is one of the dancers I guess. I like the Spanish vibe to this song. One of the lines is “I could change my life to better suit your mood”. if a guy does that just to change your mood, you are pretty special! Oh.. And I know this song is not by Matchbox 20 but it is sang by Rob Thomas so I thought I would put it in this folder.
Love,
Tayler!

Here are the lyrics for “Smooth”:

Man it’s a hot one
Like seven inches from the midday sun
I hear you whispering the words that melt everyone
But you stay so cool
My mon-equita, my Spanish Harlem Mona Lisa
You’re my reason for reason
The step in my groove

And if you said this life ain’t good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
Cause you’re so smooth

And just like the ocean under the moon
Well it’s the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kind of lovin that can be so smooth
Give me your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

I’ll tell you one thing
If you would leave it would be a crying shame
In every breath and every word I hear your name callin’ me out, yeah
Out from the barrio, you hear my rhythm from your radio
You feel the turning of the world so soft and slow
Turning you round and round

BRIDGE:
And if you said this life ain’t good enough
I would give my world to lift you up
I could change my life to better suit your mood
‘Cause your so smooth

CHORUS:
And it’s just like the ocean under the moon
Well it’s the same as the emotion that I get from you
You got the kinda lovin’ that can be so smooth, yeah
Give me your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

(guitar solo)

CHORUS:
And it’s just like the ocean under the moon
Well, that’s the same emotion that I get from you
You got the kinda lovin’ that can be so smooth, yeah
Gimmie your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it

Or else forget about it…
Or else forget about it…
Or else go and forget about it…
Gimmie your heart, make it real
Or else forget about it, oh oh now let’s go and forget about it…
Or else forget about it, oh oh now let’s go and forget about it…
Now now now, let’s go and forget about it…
