Infatuation

(Ooh, oh)

(Hey)

(Hey)

(Ooh, oh)

(Hey)

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 (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 talk don't win me over" (Ooh)

But I realized big brown eyes can hypnotize when he says

"I am full blood Boricua"

Reads the tattoo on his arm (Oh-ooh)

He tells me, "Mamí, I need you"

And my heartbeat pumps so strong (Yeah, you)

Gettin' lost in el ritmo

He whispers, "Te quiero, te quiero"

I begin to give in with no hesitation

Can't help my infatuation (Oh, oh)

It's pure infatuation (Oh, oh)

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Skin the color of cinnamon

His eyes light up and I melt within (Melt within)

Feels so good, it must be a sin

I can't stop what I started

I'm giving in (Givin' in)

He brings life to my fantasies

Sparks a passion inside of me (-Side 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 to rush love with another (Not to rush love)

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 (When he smiles)

I feel like a little child when he says

"I am full blood Boricua"

Reads the tattoo on his arm (Whoa, whoa)

He tells me, "Mamí, I need you"

And my heartbeat pumps so strong (So strong)

Gettin' lost in el ritmo

He whispers, "Te quiero, te quiero"

I begin to give in with no hesitation

Can't help my infatuation (Oh, oh)

It's pure infatuation (Oh, oh)

Caught between my mama's words and what I feel inside

I'm wantin' to explore his world

But a part of me wants to hide

Should I risk it?

Can't resist it

This has caught me by surprise

Should I let him take me to Puerto Rico?

I can't hold back no more, let's go tonight

Hey

(Papi hold me, say that you adore me)

You adore me

(Never let go, never leave me lonely)

Leave me lonely

(Papi hold me, say that you adore me)

Oh

(Never let go, never leave me lonely)

"I am full blood Boricua" (Boricua)

Reads the tattoo on his arm (On his arm)

He tells me, "Mamí, I need you"

And my heartbeat pumps so strong (So strong)

Gettin' lost in el ritmo

He whispers, "Te quiero, te quiero" (Oh)

I begin to give in with no hesitation

Can't help my infatuation

I can't help, what I'm feelin'

Infatuated

It's my infatuation (Oh-ooh)

Can't help my infatuation (Oh)

It's pure infatuation

Hey, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
