Alabao
Enrique Iglesias Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like a rush of satisfaction
Suddenly coming over me
Your eyes telling me that you hold the key
The key to unlock my fantasies
This is where I want to be
Feels like I'm hit by lightening
Every time I watch you move
You're so in tune with your body
And I can see that no one else will do
'Cause I'm so into you
(Alabao), you got the touch
(Alabao), you got the motion
(Alabao), just can't hold back any more
(Alabao), you lift me up
(Alabao), you knock me down
(Alabao), you're the one that I adore
You can take care of my affliction
Satisfy my addiction
You know what you have to do
When your body wants my affliction
You take me in a new direction
One where there's only you and me
And then we rise to the moment
And I can feel your love all around me
Now it's time to give it all
(Alabao), you got the touch
(Alabao), you got the motion
(Alabao), just can't hold back any more
(Alabao), you lift me up
(Alabao), you knock me down
(Alabao), you're the one that I adore, oh oh
Just one look in your eyes and I'm in heaven
There's so much that I want I go insane
Take me here, make me yours now and forever
I can take all the pleasure and the pain
(Alabao), you got the touch
(Alabao), you got the motion
(Alabao), just can't hold back any more
(Alabao), you lift me up
(Alabao), you knock me down
(Alabao), you're the one that I adore
(Alabao), you got the touch
(Alabao), you got the motion
(Alabao), oh oh
(Alabao), you lift me up
(Alabao), you knock me down
(Alabao), 'cause you're the one, one that I adore, one that I adore
(Alabao)?
(Alabao)?
(Alabao)?
