[English]

(Ah, ah, ah, ah) aye-aye-aye-aye

I called Cupid (hello, Cupid)

Told him, "I've been so alone," and if he knew anyone

Do you know anyone? Do you know anyone?

Who could be my always? (Who could be my -?)

My forever, all I want is a chance to be in love

I wanna be in love, I wanna -

He went shoot, shoot, baby

Right to your heart (right to your heart)

Showin' me where you are (where you are)

There you are, there you are

And now it feels like we're alone in a crowded room

I heard the angels sing for you (you)

I finally found the one I don't wanna lose

Darling, you make my heart go, boom

Boom, boom, boom (boom, boom, boom) boom, boom, boom

Darling, you make my heart go, boom (boom, boom, boom)

Boom, boom, boom (boom, boom, boom) boom, boom, boom

Darling, you make my heart go, boom (boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom)

Boom, boom, boom

Excuse me, Cupid (hello, Cupid)

I said, "Why do you hide his love away

When I know he was worth the wait?"

Yeah, he was worth the wait, yeah, he was

And he went shoot, shoot, baby

Right to your heart (right to your heart)

Showin' me where you are (where you are)

There you are, there you are

And now it feels like we're alone in a crowded room

I heard the angels sing for you

Finally found (I found) the one I don't wanna lose

Darling, you make my heart go, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom

Darling, you make my heart go, boom

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom

Darling, you make my heart go, boom

Boom, boom, boom (ooh)

Even in crowded rooms (boom, boom, boom)

It's only me and you (ooh)

You make my heart go, boom

Baby, boom, boom, boom

Even in crowded rooms

It's only me and you

You make my heart go, boom

Baby, boom, boom, boom
