[English]

I love it when you call me señorita

I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya

But every touch is ooh-la-la-la

It's true, la-la-la

Ooh, I should be runnin'

Ooh, you keep me coming for ya

Land in Miami

The air was hot from summer rain

Sweat drippin' off me

Before I even knew her name, la-la-la

It felt like ooh-la-la-la (Yeah, no)

Sapphire moonlight

We danced for hours in the sand

Tequila Sunrise

Her body fit right in my hands, la-la-la

It felt like ooh-la-la-la, yeah

I love it when you call me señorita

I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya

But every touch is ooh-la-la-la

It's true, la-la-la

Ooh, I should be runnin'

Ooh, you know I love it when you call me señorita

I wish it wasn't so damn hard to leave ya

But every touch is ooh-la-la-la

It's true, la-la-la

Ooh, I should be runnin'

Ooh, you keep me coming for ya

Locked in the hotel

There's just some things that never change

You say we're just friends

But friends don't know the way you taste, la-la-la

'Cause you know it's been a long time coming

Don't ya let me fall, oh

Ooh, when your lips undress me

Hooked on your tongue

Ooh, love, your kiss is deadly, don't stop

I love it when you call me señorita

I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya

But every touch is ooh-la-la-la

It's true, la-la-la

Ooh, I should be runnin'

Ooh, you know I love it when you call me señorita

I wish it wasn't so damn hard to leave ya

But every touch is ooh-la-la-la

It's true, la-la-la

Ooh, I should be runnin'

Ooh, you keep me coming for ya

All along I've been coming for ya (For you)

And I hope it meant something to you (Ooh)

Call my name, I'll be coming for ya (Coming for you)

Coming for ya (Coming for you)

For ya

For ya (Oh, she loves it when I call)

For ya

Ooh, I should be runnin'

Ooh, you keep me coming for ya
