[English]

In the car, cruising around with you

And my baby, you know that I got you

Hit the road, I'm taking off with you

Not in a hurry, there's something about you, oh

Leave the car at the valet (cash only)

Check me in, pop the champagne (Dom Pérignon)

Pour me a glass, she's got good taste (so good)

Take off our clothes by the fireplace (sexy, yeah)

She looks just like a dream

The prettiest girl I've ever seen

From the cover of a magazine

In the car, cruising around with you

And my baby, you know that I got you

Hit the road, I'm taking off with you

Not in a hurry, there's something about you, oh

We stayed up all night and slept 'til noon

It's so nice to wake up next to you

Let's start the day with breakfast in bed

Think I'm gonna love you 'til I'm dead

I can't wait to buy you things

A brand-new diamond ring

This is more than just a fling

In the car, cruising around with you

And my baby, you know that I got you

Hit the road, I'm taking off with you

Not in a hurry, there's something about you, oh

There's something about you, girl

There's something about you, oh

Something about you

Something about
