[English]
No, nobody touches me like you
Baby you got me feeling like ooh ooh
Your posture seduces me
With you I'm always in the mood
My love
It's not that I don't want you in my world
It's in your eyes that I lose everything
I'm so obsessed with you
But it's better to take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
You have to be calm
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
If you believe with body and soul
Baby take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Baby I love you, give me a kiss
Muah
Only you can turn me inside out
Today we end up at the same address
Only you and I
I want so much to give you everything your mind imagined
Let me prove that your intuition didn't fool you
My love
You say you'd do anything for me
Even though I can't give you the world
I love you too
But it's better to take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
You have to be calm
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
Take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
If you believe with body and soul
Baby take it easy, take it easy, take it easy
My baby
(Shake it)
(Shake it)
(Shake it)
My baby
(I'm in you, in you, in you, in you, in you)
(I'm in you, in you, in you, in you, in you)
My baby
(I'm in you, in you, in you, in you, in you)
(I'm in you, in you, in you, in you, in you)
