Getting lost in el ritmo
He tells me, "Mami, I need ya"
I can't hold back no more, let's go tonight
He tells me, "Mami, I need ya"
Can't help my infatuation
Papi hold me, say that you adore me
I just care about my daughter"
I can't stop what I started, I'm givin' in
And I slip as we dip into a state of bliss
Can't help my infatuation
Mama used to warn me to beware those Latin lovers
And we dance to the rhythm of the band
I begin to give in with no hesitation
She said, "I gave my heart to soon
I'm wanting to explore his world
In the silence his heart beat is music to me
I am full blood Boricua, reads the tattoo on his arm
Can't help my infatuation
Mama used to warn me
Feels so good it must be a sin
Steals my heart when he takes my hand
He brings life to my fantasies
I begin to give in with no hesitation
I begin to give in with no hesitation
And my heart beat pumps so strong
He tells me, "Mami, I need ya"
I'm not in love yet, sweet talk don't win me over"
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
Papi hold me, say that you adore me
And that's how I became your mother"
Never let go, never leave me lonely
But when he smiles
Sparks a passion inside of me
Not to rush love with another
Can't keep my cool
Getting lost in el ritmo
I never will let a man control my emotions"
I am full blood Boricua, reads the tattoo on his arm
Caught between my mama's words
Till I'm breathless, I'm helpless
It's pure Infatuation
Skin the color of cinnamon
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
I am full blood Boricua, reads the tattoo on his arm
I feel his fingertips grip my hips
Finds the words when I cannot speak
Should I let him take me to Puerto Rico
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
Can't help my infatuation
This has caught me by surprise
It's pure Infatuation
She said, "I'm not trying to lecture
I said, "Ay Mama you seem to forget
But part of me wants to hide
Never let go never leave me lonely
But I realized, big brown eyes can hypnotize, when he says
Getting lost in el ritmo
And my heart beat pumps so strong
And what I feel inside
Can't help my infatuation
His eyes light up and I melt within
Should I risk it, can't resist it
I feel like a little child and when he says
"Ay Mama you seem to forget
And my heart beat pumps so strong
