Song of Christina Aguilera from album Stripped
Infatuation
Christina Aguilera
He comes from a foreign place, an island far away
Intrigues me with every move till I'm breathless, I'm helpless,
can't keep my cool
Steals my heart when he takes my hand
And we dance to the rhythm of the band
I feel his fingertips grip my hips and I slip as we dip into a state of bliss
Mama used to warn me to beware those Latin lovers
She said: I gave my heart too soon and that's how I became your mother
I said: Ay Mama you seem to forget
I'm not in love yet
Sweet talks don't 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 heart beat pumps so strong
Getting lost in el ritmo he whispers te quiero, te quiero
I begin to give in with no hesitation,
Can't help my infatuation
It's pure Infatuation (yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Skin the color of cinnamon,
His eyes light up and I melt within
Feels so good it must be a sin
I can't stop what I started, I'm givin' in
He brings life to my fantasies,
Sparks a passion inside of me,
Finds the words when I cannot speak,
In the silence his heart beat is music to me
Mama used to warn me not to rush love (not to rush love) with another
She said: I'm not trying to lecture I just care about my daughter
Ay Mama you seem to forget,
I never will let a man control my emotions
But when he smiles I feel like a little child,
And when he says
Caught between my mama's words and what I feel inside
Wanted to explore his world but part of me wants to hide
Should I risk it, can't resist it, this has caught me by suprise
Should I let him take me to Puerto Rico
I can't hold back no more
Let's go tonight
Papi hold me, say that you adore me
Never let go never leave me lonely
Papi hold me, say that you adore me
Never let go never leave me lonely
Papi hold me, say that you adore me
Never let go never leave me lonely (lonely)
Repeat chorus till the end
