Highway to Marbella

Night has fallen

The stars are smiling at me

I’m driving in the car

Reserved a couple of bottles

With me, she loses control

I told her, when you’re alone

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

If you ask me, we’ll leave today

Don’t overthink, just hit the gas

The madness of falling in love

Always in order, with you it’s chaos

I had a déjà vu where you appeared

Drinking Johnny Blue, feeling wild

I was breaking the ice and melted an igloo

Dancing close like super glue

If you drive with me, don’t walk alone

With you, time flies

Feel safe, don’t pay it any mind

I’ve got my gun in my fanny pack

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Hey, if you want, I’ll go with you

We’ll be best friends

Just where there are no witnesses

You follow me, and I’ll follow you

Hey, if you want, I’ll go with you

We’ll be best friends

Just where there are no witnesses

You follow me, and I’ll follow you

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

Turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights, turn on the lights

[Spanish]

Autopista pa' Marbella

Se hizo de noche

Me sonríen las estrellas

Voy pilotando en el coche

Reserve par de botellas

Conmigo se descontrola

Le dije cuando estés sola

Da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Si me lo pides hoy nos vamos

No pienses tanto y acelera

La locura de enamorarnos

Siempre en el orden, contigo el desorden

Yo tuve un déjà vu donde apareces tú

Arrebatao' bebiendo Johnny Blue

Estaba rompiendo el hielo y derretí un iglú

Bailando pegaos como super glue

Si conduces conmigo no camines sola

Contigo se me vuelan las horas

Siéntete segura no le des más bola

Que en la riñonera llevo la pistola

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Ey, si quieres yo me voy contigo

Vamos a ser mejores amigos

Solo donde no haya testigos

Tú me sigues y yo te sigo

Ey, si quieres yo me voy contigo

Vamos a ser mejores amigos

Solo donde no haya testigos

Tú me sigues y yo te sigo

Da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz

Da la luz, da la luz, da la luz, da la luz
