lyrics

Latin Lover

I don’t know what got me
Threw my mind off guard
He was in tune with the rhythm
Beating in my heart
And we free-styled went wild in unfamiliar ways
It didn’t take long till I discovered the trap of a Latin lover  

He traps my vanity
Drives me to insanity
Claws digging into me
With no room to breathe
 He traps my vanity
Drives me to insanity
Claws digging into me
With no room to breathe

A die hard casanova
With fire in his touch
Going crazy
I was feeling way too much
Hypnotized while passion rises
Couldn’t keep my cool
It didn’t take long till I discovered the trap of a Latin lover  He traps my vanity
Drives me to insanity
Claws digging into me
With no room to breathe He traps my vanity
Drives me to insanity
Claws digging into me
With no room to breathe

No se que me atrajo
Tanto hacia ti 
Tus besos, tus caricias hacen  
Mi corazón latir 
Sigo tu ritmo, me acerco a ti 
Solo te pido no me hagas sufrir

 He traps my vanity
Drives me to insanity
Claws digging into me
With no room to breathe
He traps my vanity
Drives me to insanity
Claws digging into me
With no room to breathe (repeat)
