No escaparás, tu fuego dirá la verdad
No importa si quieres o no, porque hoy mando yo
Come on and take me, come on and shake me
Quiero saber lo que sientes por mí
Come on and take me, come on and shake me
¿Que no lo ves que estoy loca por ti?
La noche es para mí
No puedo más, juro que mío serás
Ven a bailar, ya no podrás escapar
No importa si quieres o no, porque hoy mando yo
Come on and take me, come on and shake me
Quiero saber lo que sientes por mí
Come on and take me, come on and shake me
¿Que no lo ves que estoy loca por ti?
Come set me free, just you and me
La noche es para mí
Take me, shake me, take me
Brilla una luz
Mi magica noche eres tu
Ya no hay tabus
Quiero clavarte en mi cruz
Brilla la luz, mi mágica noche eres tu
Ya no hay tabús
Quiero clavarte mi cruz
Come on and take me, come on and shake me
Quiero saber lo que sientes por mí
Come on and take me, come on and shake me
¿Que no lo ves que estoy loca por ti?
La noche es para mí
La noche es para mí
Come set me free, just you and me

Fun fact: This is the 25th and last song of the ESC 2009 which means that this is officially the last Eurovision song of the 2000's decade.
@Makss.1
Spain sang as well last in 2019 ESC which means last song of Eurovision song of the 2010's decade

Spain was also the last song of 1979 and the 70s and also hosted the last contest of the 60s ;)

@Gizem last in the acts not in the votes
@MrYuikwan
Underrated! She was singing and dancing very well. She should be much higher rank.
@bleakm1343
One of the most spectacular performances in Eurovision history. The energy, her smile. Completely ABSURD how she got second to last.

One of the best pop songs Spain has ever sent, I still dance to it. And her smile was everything !!! They were so unfair to her
