Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Your body next to mine
Feel the touch of your skin
In every move I feel the beat
In every breath I take
I feel the rhythm of your heart
When I hear the music start
Oh... ven a bailar conmigo
Come dance with me tonight
Let's feel the beat, feel the heat
You and me
Ven a bailar conmigo
Let's dance the night away
Just move your feet to the beat
And dance with me
Ven a bailar conmigo
The way you move, the way you dance
Makes me feel alive
I wanna stay in your arms
It's in your eyes, it's in the look
That you're giving me
I feel the rhythm of your heart
When I hear the music start
All I want is to be here with you
Oh... ven a bailar conmigo
Come dance with me tonight
Let's feel the beat, feel the heat
You and me
Ven a bailar conmigo
Let's dance the night away
Just move your feet to the beat
And dance with me
Ven a bailar conmigo
Ven a bailar conmigo
Let's dance!
Oh... ven a bailar conmigo
Come dance with me tonight
Let's feel the beat, feel the heat
You and me
Ven a bailar conmigo
Let's dance the night away
Just move your feet to the beat
And dance with me
Oh... ven a bailar conmigo
Let's dance the night away
Just move your feet to the beat
And dance with me
Just move your feet to the beat
And dance with me
Ven a bailar conmigo
