The night I laid my eyes on you
Got nervous when you looked my way
But you knew all the words to say
Then your love slowly moved right in
All this time, oh my love where you been
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet

La la la la la la

La la la la la la
La la la la la la
I'm mesmerized in every way
You keep me in a state of daze
You're kisses make my skin feel weak
I'm always melting in your heat
Then I soar like a bird in the wind
Oh, I glide as I'm flying through heaven
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Since we connect behind closed doors
Spark this fire even more
No telling where we will be next
Surrender to your rapture arrest
Lay your head, let the slumber float
Can't resist, that's why words were wrote
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so, yeah
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, I want you so
Sugar, you make my soul complete
Rapture tastes so sweet
Mi amore, don't you know

The night I laid my eyes on you
When I first saw you and felt the world around me move
Felt everything around me move
The impact of the first meeting left me in awe
Got nervous when you looked my way
You had an effect on me and made me anxious
But you knew all the words to say
You spoke with such ease and made me feel at ease too
Then your love slowly moved right in
The emotions we shared drew us closer
All this time, oh my love where you been
It feels like I've been waiting for this love all my life
Mi amore, don't you know
My love, you must know
My love, I want you so
I desire your love so much
Sugar, you make my soul complete
You are the missing piece that makes me whole
Rapture tastes so sweet
Our love feels amazing and fulfilling
I'm mesmerized in every way
You capture my attention completely
You keep me in a state of daze
I'm in a trance-like state when I'm with you
You're kisses make my skin feel weak
Your affection has a strong physical effect on me
I'm always melting in your heat
I'm in a constant state of passion when we're together
Then I soar like a bird in the wind
In your company, I feel like I can fly
Oh, I glide as I'm flying through heaven
Our love takes me on a blissful ride
Since we connect behind closed doors
We share a deep love that only we know of
Spark this fire even more
Let's light up our passion even more
No telling where we will be next
Our love will take us to places unknown
Surrender to your rapture arrest
I give myself over to the pleasure of our love
Lay your head, let the slumber float
Relax and let your mind wander in bliss
Can't resist, that's why words were wrote
Our love is so strong, it inspired these words
