[English]

You're so good I could eat you whole, that's how you are

You look so good, that face and that tattoo

Oh, it makes the vibe never go down

I don't need anything if I have you (Ra-Rauw)

I don't even know what to do when I'm close to you (wuh)

Your coffee-colored eyes took over me (yih)

I'm dying for a kiss that's not a friend's kiss (hey)

I realized that I live for that smile

When night falls, she always hits me up (wouh)

I tell her the plans, and if I pick her up, she's immediately down (wuh)

Bring your clothes, if the party ends late

I'll leave you a little spot here with me, yeah (ya!)

You're so good I could eat you whole, that's how you are

You look so good, that face and that tattoo

Oh, it makes the vibe never go down

I don't need anything if I have you (uoh, oh-oh, yeah, eh)

You're so good I could eat you whole, that's how you are (oh-oh, yeh)

You look so good, that face and that tattoo

Oh, it makes the vibe never go down

I don't need anything if I have you (I don't need anything, baby, listen, hey)

I don't want anyone else (wuh-uh)

But you in my bed (ra)

Baby, when you wake up

Wake me up before you leave (hey)

Only your mouth is what I have for breakfast (mua)

I always take advantage of the opportune moment (yuh)

There's no one like me

Let me be your number one, baby (ya!)

You're so good I could eat you whole, that's how you are (uh-uh, uh)

You look so good, that face and that tattoo

Oh, it makes the vibe never go down

I don't need anything if I have you (ah-ah, yeh)

You're so good I could eat you whole, that's how you are (oh-oh, yeh)

You look so good, that face and that tattoo

Oh, it makes the vibe never go down

I don't need anything if I have you (I don't need anything, baby)

Yeah, Ra-Rauw Alejandro

Yo no sé ni qué hacer cuando estoy cerca de ti (wuh)

Tus ojos color café se apoderaron de mí (yih)

Muero por un beso de esos que no son de amigos (hey)

Me di cuenta que por esa sonrisa yo vivo

Cuando cae la noche, siempre me tira (wouh)
