No puedes negar que cuando yo estoy cerca no te puedes resistir
You can't deny that when I'm around you can't resist
Pero tu pasado siempre te aleja de mí
But your past always takes you away from me
Yo soy diferente, no lo ves que quiero hacerte feliz
I am different, don't you see that I want to make you happy
Me subes al cielo y me dejas caer
You take me to the sky and you let me fall
Y vuelvo a tus brazos como un perro fiel
And I return to your arms like a faithful dog
Tan solo te quiero preguntar
I just want to ask you
Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebe
Why do you refuse to love me, baby?
Si sientes fuego al mirarme, lo sé
If you feel fire when you look at me, I know
Que ganas sobran de besarme y yo también
You have so much desire to kiss me and so do I
Muero por tenerte desnuda otra vez
I'm dying to have you naked again
Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebe
Why do you refuse to love me, baby?
Si sientes fuego al mirarme, lo sé
If you feel fire when you look at me, I know
Que ganas sobran de besarme y yo también
You have so much desire to kiss me and so do I
Muero por tenerte en mi cama otra vez
I'm dying to have you in my bed again
JR, Mickey Then
JR, Mickey Then
Is just different
Is just different
Es que muero porque estemos juntos, Rulay
I'm dying because we're together, Rulay
Dígale cuñado, esto es una gracia eterna
Tell him brother, this is eternal grace
Dice tócala Javier, sóbala, sóbala, sóbala
He says play it Javier, play it, play it, play it
Me subes al cielo y me dejas caer
You take me to the sky and you let me fall
Y vuelvo a tus brazos como un perro fiel
And I return to your arms like a faithful dog
Tan solo te quiero preguntar
I just want to ask you
Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebe
Why do you refuse to love me, baby?
Si sientes fuego al mirarme, lo sé
If you feel fire when you look at me, I know
Que ganas sobran de besarme y yo también
You have so much desire to kiss me and so do I
Muero por tenerte en mi cama otra vez
I'm dying to have you in my bed again
Mami, only you me tiene uh, di variando uh
Mommy, only you have me, uh, giving me variety uh
Lo hacemos a tu manera cuando tú quieras, donde tú quieras
We do it your way when you want, where you want
Ven que el tiempo está pasando y las ganas aumentando
See that time is passing and the desire is growing
Si yo te gusto mi amor
If you like me, my love
Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebe
Why do you refuse to love me, baby?
Si sientes fuego al mirarme, lo sé
If you feel fire when you look at me, I know
Que ganas sobran de besarme y yo también
You have so much desire to kiss me and so do I
Muero por tenerte desnuda otra vez
I'm dying to have you naked again
Por qué te niegas en amarme, bebe
Why do you refuse to love me, baby?
Si sientes fuego al mirarme, lo sé
If you feel fire when you look at me, I know
Que ganas sobran de besarme y yo también
You have so much desire to kiss me and so do I
Muero por tenerte en mi cama otra vez
I'm dying to have you in my bed again
Bailemos, que estés conmigo
Let's dance, you being with me
Tiene sentido, regálame una noche más
Makes sense, give me one more night
Don't matter, baby, don't worry
Don't matter, baby, don't worry
You can be my shorty even if it is just one last time
You can be my shorty even if it is just one last time
