Ooooh, ah ah
When I look into your eyes
I see the ocean in the shore
And I know just what I'm living for
When I look into your eyes
Yeah

When I look into your eyes
All the love there is arrives
And everything around me dies
When I look into your eyes

When I look into your eyes
The sun melts deep into the sky
And plants a seed inside my soul
And takes me up into the sky

When I look into your eyes
I see the ocean in the shore
And I know just what I'm living for
When I look into your eyes
Yeah, yeah

Carlos Augusto Alves Santana (born July 20, 1947 in Autlán de Navarro, Jalisco) is a Mexican and American musician who became famous in the late 1960s and early 1970s with his band, Santana, which pioneered a fusion of rock and Latin American music. Carlos prefers to only play and leave lead vocals to guest singers. The band’s sound featured his melodic, blues-based guitar lines set against Latin and African rhythms featuring percussion instruments such as timbales and congas not generally heard in rock music. He experienced a resurgence of popularity and critical acclaim in the late 1990s. In 2003 Rolling Stone magazine listed Santana at number 20 on their list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time. He has won ten Grammy Awards and three Latin Grammy Awards.
