[bad word] from a foreign place
An island far away
Intrigues me with every move
Til Im breathless, Im helpless
Cant keep my cool
Steals my heart when he takes my hand
And we dance, to the rhythm of the band
I feel his finger tips, grip my hips
And I slip as we dip into a state of bliss

Mama used to warn me
To beware of those latin lovers
She said I gave my heart too soon
And thats how I became your mother
I said ay mama, you seem to forget
Im not in love yet
Sweet talk dont win me over
But I realized
Big brown eyes can hypnotize
When he says

I am full blood boricua
Read the tattoo on his arm
He tells me, mami I need ya
And my heartbeat pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
I begin to give in with no hesitation
Cant help my infatuation
Its pure infatuation

Skin the color of cinnamon
His eyes light up and I melt within
Feels so good it must be a sin
I cant stop what I started
Im giving in
He brings life to my fantasies
Sparks a passion inside of me
Finds the words when I can not speak
In the silence, his heartbeat is music to me

Mama used to warn me
Not [bad word] love with another
She said Im not trying to lecture
I just care about my daughter
Ay mama, you seem to forget
I never will let
man control my emotions
But when he smiles
I feel like a little child
When he says

I am full blood boricua
Read the tattoo on his arm
He tells me, mami I need ya
And my heartbeat pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
I begin to give in with no hesitation
Cant help my infatuation
Its pure infatuation

Caught between my mamas words
And what I feel inside
Im wanting to explore his world
But a part of me wants to hide
Should I risk it, cant resist it
This has caught me by surprise
Should i, let him take me to puerto rico
I cant hold back no more
Lets go tonight... you adore me, never be lonely

I am full blood boricua
Read the tattoo on his arm
He tells me, mami I need ya
And my heartbeat pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo
He whispers te quiero, te quiero
I begin to give in with no hesitation
Cant help my infatuation

I cant help, what Im feeling
Infatuated
Infatuation
