Senorita
Dance Dance Dance Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Reading the newspaper, not looking up
She smiles as she finds something funny there,
The sunlight shining in her hair
When she leaves you want to follow her anywhere
Her dress is too tight but you can't let her see you stare
Ooh la Señorita
You'll never get close enough
To la Señorita
Hora, sa fuega
You know she has a mind, she has an attitude
And she likes her space and her solitude
She'll tease you or please you, if she's feeling good
Or burn you like you knew she would
When she smiles It's like the sun shining on your face
Pulling and stretching her leather and lace
And she's a hot one, a jalepeña
Ooh la Señorita
In Baja, California
Ooh la Señorita
Ooh la Señorita
Ole!

I love it when you call me señorita
I wish I could pretend I didn't need ya
But every touch is ooh la la la
It's true, la la la
Ooh, I should be running
Ooh, you keep me coming for ya
Land in Miami
The air was hot from summer rain
Sweat dripping off me
Before I even knew her name, la la la
It felt like ooh la la la

We danced for hours in the sand
Tequila sunrise
Her body fit right in my hands, la la la

You say we're just friends
But friends don't know the way you taste, la la la
'Cause you know it's been a long time coming
Don't you let me fall, oh
Ooh, when your lips undress me
Hooked on your tongue
Ooh love, your kiss is deadly

Fun story: when I heard this song, I didn't know they were singing about each other. I thought they were both singing about the same "señorita" and I was like "WHOA, they both fell for the same woman?"
