Infatuation lyrics by Christina Aguilera

Infatuation - Christina Aguilera

Intro
Oohoh ah, hey.
Hey hey ah ah ah.
Oohohohoh, hey hey hey.

1. Strophe
He comes from a foreign place and I live far away.
Intrigues me with every move,
'til I'm breathless, I'm helpless, can't keep my cool.
Steals my heart when he takes my hand and we dance to the rhythm of the band.
I feel his fingertips grip my hips and I slip, as we dip into a state of bliss.
Mama used to warn me to beware those latin lovers.
She said I gave my heart too soon and that's how I became your mother.
I said ay mama, you seem to forget I'm not in love yet, sweet talk don't win me over.
But I realize, big brown eyes, get hypnotized when he says...

1. Refrain
I am full blood boricua, read the tatoo on his arm.
He tells me "Mami I need ya!" and my heartbeat pumps so strong.
Getting lost in a ritmo, he whispers "Te quiero", Te Quiero.
I begin to give in with no hesitation, can't help my infatuation.
It's pure infatuation.
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah, yeah.

2. Strophe
Skin the color of cinnamon, his eyes light up and I'm filled within.
Feels so good it must be a sin, I can't stop what I started I'm giving in.
He brings life to my fantasies, sparks of passion inside of me.
Find the words when I cannot speak and the silence, his heartbeat is music to me.
Mama used to warn me not to rush up with those others.
She said I'm not trying to lecture, I just care about my daughter.
Ay mama, you seem to forget I never would let a man control my emotions.
But when he smiles, I feel like a little child, when he says...

2. Refrain
I am full blood boricua, read the tatoo on his arm.
He tells me "Mami I need ya!" and my heartbeat pumps so strong.
Getting lost in a ritmo, he whispers "Te quiero", Te Quiero.
I begin to give in with no hesitation, can't help my infatuation.
It's pure infatuation.

Bridge
Caught between my mama's words and what I feel inside.
I'm wanting to explore his world but part of me wants to hide.
Should I risk it? Can't resist it.
This has caught me by surprise.
Should I let him take me to Puerto Rico?
I can't hold back no more of my love.
Ooohoohoohoohooh, hey eyeyey.
You adore me, don't leave me lonely.
Ohohohohohoh.

Coda
I am full blood boricua, read the tatoo on his arm.
He tells me "Mami I need ya!" and my heartbeat pumps so strong.
Getting lost in a ritmo, he whispers "Te quiero", Te Quiero.
I begin to give in with no hesitation, can't help my infatuation.
It's pure infatuation.
Can't help my infatuation.
It's pure infatuation
Hey yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.
