Tempo – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

You and me

Got that some kind of chemistry

Like we the perfect recipe

And we're headed for trouble

Oh, you and me

Snacking on that forbidden tree

Boy, I think it's our destiny

That we conquer this jungle

There's a tiger inside my body

And it's finally running loose

Whenever I feel you on me

Oh, I just gotta move

Let me be your tempo, tempo

Let me take you way low, way low

Gonna go my pace

Put you in that mood

Boy, you go boom boom

Let me be your tempo, tempo

Don't you ever let go, let go

Hands around my waist

You feeling my groove

Boy, you go boom boom boom

Usually I'm so into the melody

I forget the intensity

Of that rhythmic persuasion

But suddenly

You're becoming my remedy

And I know that you're getting me

All of these good vibrations

There's a tiger inside my body

And it's finally running loose

Whenever I feel you on me

Oh, I just gotta move

Let me be your tempo, tempo

Let me take you way low, way low

Gonna go my pace

Put you in that mood

Boy, you go boom boom

Let me be your tempo, tempo

Don't you ever let go, let go

Hands around my waist

You feeling my groove

Boy, you go boom boom boom

Tempo

Wanna feel that rush, no no

Come and give it

Keep up the, keep up the

I can't get enough, no no

Keep up the, keep up the tempo

Wanna feel that rush, no no

Come and give it

Keep up the, keep up the

I can't get enough, no no

Keep up the, keep up the tempo

'Cause there is no way that you could be taming this fire

Let me be your tempo, tempo

Don't you ever let go, let go

Hands around my waist

You feeling my groove

Boy, you go boom boom boom

Tempo

Wanna feel that rush, no no

Come and give it

Keep up the, keep up the

I can't get enough, no no

Keep up the, keep up the tempo

Wanna feel that rush, no no

Come and give it

Keep up the, keep up the

I can't get enough, no no

Keep up the, keep up the

Keep up the tempo
