Perreo de Medianoche (Version 4)

Verse

Last cab idling, meter running red

Your thumb still tracing circles on my head

Suitcase by the doorway, one bag, two shirts gone

Perfume on the pillow lingers on and on

Clock says quarter to, the DJ's packing up

Ice melts in the bottom of your plastic cup

You say it's just tonight, but tonight feels like the end

Dance it out before the sun comes in

Pre-Chorus

So why's my body still saying stay

When my mouth already learned to say

Goodbye, goodbye, one more time

Tell me this ain't the last dance line

Chorus

Perreo de medianoche, one last round for us

Your hands goodbye, your hips say trust

The bassline cries but my feet don't stop

Turning our ending to a hopeful drop

Perreo de medianoche, save me one more song

Say te amo quiet, then be gone

But the way you move says we're not done

Midnight goodbye, morning sun

Verse

Airport lights already in your eyes

Still you pull me closer every time the bass drops twice

Text me when you land, I'll be right where you left me

Dancing out the hurt so it don't get me

Sweat and neon, mixing like a signal

Your ring finger empty but your word is my visual

Two years, one goodbye, don't make it feel like less

Just another rhythm we ain't finished yet

Pre-Chorus

So why's my body still saying stay

When my mouth already learned to say

Goodbye, goodbye, one more time

Tell me this ain't the last dance line

Chorus

Perreo de medianoche, one last round for us

Your hands goodbye, your hips say trust

The bassline cries but my feet don't stop

Turning our ending to a hopeful drop

Perreo de medianoche, save me one more song

Say te amo quiet, then be gone

But the way you move says we're not done

Midnight goodbye, morning sun

Bridge

Maybe the leaving's just a door not a wall

Maybe the low end calls us back after all

Six months, new city, same song on replay

I'll find you dancing where the night turns to day

Chorus

Perreo de medianoche, one last round for us

Your hands goodbye, your hips say trust

The bassline cries but my feet don't stop

Turning our ending to a hopeful drop

Perreo de medianoche, save me one more song

Say te amo quiet, then be gone

But the way you move says we're not done

Midnight goodbye, morning sun
