Despacito
Nicole Cross Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come on over in my direction
So thankful for that, it′s such a blessin', yeah
Turn every situation into Heaven, yeah
(Oh, you are...)
My sunrise on the darkest day
Got me feelin′ some kind of way
Make me wanna savor every moment slowly, slowly
You fit me, tailor-made love, how you put it on
Got the only key, know how to turn it on
The way you nibble on my ear, the only words I wanna hear
Baby take it slow so we can last long

Oh, tú, tú eres el imán y yo soy el metal
Me voy acercando y voy armando el plan
Sólo con pensarlo se acelera el pulso
Oh, yeah Ya, ya me está gustando más de lo normal
Todos mis sentidos van pidiendo más
Esto hay que tomarlo sin ningún apuro

Despacito
Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito
Deja que te diga cosas al oído
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo
Despacito
Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito
Firmo en las paredes de tu laberinto
Y hacer de tu cuerpo todo un manuscrito
(Sube, sube, sube
Sube, sube)

Quiero ver bailar tu pelo
Quiero ser tu ritmo
Que le enseñes a mi boca
Tus lugares favoritos
(Favorito, favorito, baby)
Déjame sobrepasar tus zonas de peligro
Hasta provocar tus gritos
Y que olvides tu apellido

Si te pido un beso, ven, dámelo
Yo sé que estás pensándolo
Llevo tiempo intentándolo
Mami, esto es dando y dándolo
Sabes que tu corazón conmigo te hace bang-bang
Sabes que esa beba está buscando de mi bang-bang
Ven, prueba de mi boca para ver cómo te sabe
Quiero, quiero, quiero ver cuánto amor a ti te cabe
Yo no tengo prisa, yo me quiero dar el viaje
Empecemos lento, después salvaje

Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito
Cuando tú me besas con esa destreza
Veo que eres malicia con delicadeza
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito
Y es que esa belleza es un rompecabezas
Pero pa' montarlo aquí tengo la pieza
¡Oye!

Despacito
Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito
Deja que te diga cosas al oído
Para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo
Despacito
Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito
Firmo en las paredes de tu laberinto
Y hacer de tu cuerpo todo un manuscrito
(Sube, sube, sube
Sube, sube)

Quiero ver bailar tu pelo
Quiero ser tu ritmo
Que le enseñes a mi boca
Tus lugares favoritos
(Favorito, favorito, baby)
Déjame sobrepasar tus zonas de peligro
Hasta provocar tus gritos
Y que olvides tu apellido

Despacito
This is how we do it down in Puerto Rico
I just wanna hear you screaming, "¡Ay, Bendito!"
I can move forever se quede contigo
¡Bailalo!

Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito
Que le enseñes a mi boca
Tus lugares favoritos
(Favorito, favorito, baby)
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito
Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito
Hasta provocar tus gritos (Fonsi)
Y que olvides tu apellido (D.Y.)
Despacito

Line by Line Meaning

Come and stand by me
I'm grateful, it's such a blessing


Turn all situations into heaven
You're my sunrise even on my darkest days


You have me feeling some type of way
You make me want to savor every moment slowly


You fit me like a custom-made love gown
You hold the key to my heart, you know how to please me


When you whisper in my ear, it's the only thing I want to hear
Let's take it slow so our love can last long


You are the magnet and I am the metal
As I move closer, everything accelerates


It's not usual, but I like it
All of my senses are asking for more


Let's enjoy this without any rush
Slowly


I want to breathe your neck slowly
Let me whisper things in your ear


So that you remember if you're not with me
Slowly


I want to undress you with kisses slowly
Write on the walls of your labyrinth


And make your whole body a manuscript
(Up, up, up, up)


I want to see you dance
I want to be your rhythm


Teach my mouth
Your favorite places


(Favorite, favorite, baby)
Let me overlook your danger zones


Until I provoke your screams
And you forget your last name


If I ask for a kiss, come give it to me
I know you're thinking about it


I've been trying for a long time
Baby, this is giving and giving


You know that your heart with me makes you go bang, bang
You know that baby is looking for my bang, bang


Come, taste my mouth to see how it feels
I want, I want, I want to see how much love fits in you


I'm not in a hurry, I want to take the trip with you
Let's start slowly, then get wild


Step by step, gentle softly
We'll get closer, bit by bit


When you kiss me with that skill
I see that you are malice with delicacy


Step by step, gentle softly
We'll get closer, bit by bit


And that beauty is a puzzle
But here I have the piece to put it all together


Slowly
I want to breathe your neck slowly


Let me whisper things in your ear
So that you remember if you're not with me


Slowly
I want to undress you with kisses slowly


Write on the walls of your labyrinth
And make your whole body a manuscript


(Up, up, up, up)
I want to see you dance


I want to be your rhythm
Teach my mouth


Your favorite places
(Favorite, favorite, baby)


Step by step, gentle softly
We'll get closer, bit by bit


Let me overlook your danger zones
Until I provoke your screams (Fonsi)


And you forget your last name (DY)
Slowly
