He comes from a foreign place,An island far awayIntrigues me with every moveTill I`m breathless, I`m helpless, can`t keep my coolSteals my heart when he takes my handAnd we dance to the rhythm of the bandFeel his fingertips grip my hipsAnd I slip as we dip into a state of blissMama used to warn me to beware those Latin loversShe said I gave my heart too soon and that`s how I became your motherI said, "Ay, Mama, you seem to forgetI`m not in love yet,Sweet talk don`t win me over"But I realize big brown eyes can hypnotize when he saysCHORUS:I am full blood BoricuaReads the tattoo on his armHe tells me, "Mami, I need yaAnd my heartbeat pumps so strong"Getting lost in el ritmoHe whispers, "Te quiero, te quiero"I begin to give in with no hesitationCan`t help my infatuationIt`s pure infatuationSkin the color of cinnamonHis eyes light up and I melt withinFeels so good it must be sinI can`t stop what I started I`m giving inHe brings life to my fantasies,Sparks a passion inside of me,Finds the words when I cannot speakIn the silence, his heart beat is music to meMama used to warn me not to rush love with anotherShe said, "I`m not trying to lecture, I just care about my daughter"I said, "Ay, Mama, you seem to forgetI never will let a man control my emotions"But when he smiles, I feel like a little child and when he saysCHORUSCaught between my mama`s words and what I feel insideI`m wanting to explore his world but part of me wants to hideShould I risk it, can`t resist it, this has caught me by surpriseShould I let him take me to Puerto Rico?I can`t hold back no more, let`s go tonightPapi, hold me, say that you adore meNever let go, never leave me lonelyPapi, hold me, say that you adore meNever let go, never leave me lonelyCHORUS
