Señorita
Greg Gontier Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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 runnin′
Ooh, you keep me comin' for ya
Land in Miami
Sweat drippin' off me
Before I even knew her name, la-la-la
It felt like ooh-la-la-la (Yeah)
Sapphire moonlight
We danced for hours in the sand
Tequila sunrise
Her body fit right in my hands, la-la-la
It felt like ooh-la-la-la, yeah
I love it when you call 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 runnin'
Ooh, you know I love it when you call Señorita
I wish it wasn′t so damn hard to leave ya
But every touch is ooh-la-la-la
It's true, la-la-la
Ooh, I should be runnin′
Ooh, you keep me comin' for ya
Locked in the hotel
There′s just some things that never change
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 comin', don′t ya let me fall
Ooh, when your lips undress me
Hooked on your tongue
Ooh, love, your kiss is deadly, don't stop
I love it when you call 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 runnin′
Ooh, you know I love it when you call Señorita
I wish it wasn't so damn hard to leave ya
But every touch is ooh-la-la-la
It's true, la-la-la
Ooh, I should be runnin′
Ooh, you keep me comin′ for ya
