Mi Chica Latina
Modern Romance Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Verse 1
There's a girl from San Antonio, queen of my soul
But I've never told her how I feel, she doesn't know
Wanna say so much, I can't find a way
Guess I'll be a stranger for another day

Chorus
When she does the Salsa, it's just out of this world
Mi Chica Latina, my Venezuelan girl
If she only knew the truth, and the way I really feel
Would I win or would I lose her, my Venezuelan girl

Verse 2
I see her standing all alone, will I ever make her mine
Even in the dimmest light she shines, she's so divine
I wanna tell her but it might go wrong
So I suffer in the shadows and another chance is gone

Chorus

Verse 3
I been waiting for so long waiting for your move
Watching you as you watch me So make my dreams come true





Come to me like summer breeze enchant me with your smile
In your arms I long to be your Venezuelan girl
