Yo soy la chica de enfrente
La que vive en la ventana,
La que te regala risas y
Te alegra las mañanas

Yo soy la chica de enfrente
La mas guapa del condao
Que te despertó hace poco

De ese sueño condenao

Acercate te bailo, yo te canto,
Por flamenco, por cubano,
Acercate, te bailo, yo te canto,
Por flamenco por cubano,
Por bolero y por fandango,

¡lo que no acaba por la piel!

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
Yo bailo pa ti

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
La vida es así

Yo soy la chica de enfrente
La que viste en el colmao
La que te llanaba el carro
De sonrisas sin pecao,

Yo soy la chica de enfrente
La bailona del lugar,
La que te repara el
Alma si te paras a llorar

Acercate te bailo, yo te canto,
Por flamenco, por cubano,
Acercate, te bailo, yo te canto,
Por flamenco por cubano,
Por bolero y por fandango,

¡lo que no acaba por la piel!

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
Yo bailo pa ti

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
La vida es así

¡Y si en mis ojos
Te quieres mirar!
¡y si en mi playa
Te quieres baña!
Dale vamonos que
Lleguemos al mar..
A nevegar, a navegar...

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
Yo bailo pa ti

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
La vida es así

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
Yo bailo pa ti

Dancing for you,
Dancing for my,
Tocalo amor,
La vida es así

¡yo lo bailo!

She claims to be the most beautiful girl in the "condao" (which could be a loose reference to the Spanish province of Córdoba or a fictional place). Melody suggests that the listener recently woke up from a troubled dream, and she was the one who pulled them out of it.

Melody then extends an invitation to the listener to come closer, saying that she can sing and dance for them. She mentions different Latin music genres like flamenco, Cuban music, bolero, and fandango. The final lines talk about how she is dancing for not only the listener's pleasure but for herself as well, celebrating life as it is.
