The song is a ballad in 3/4 time in which Vélez sings about a French girl called Michèle, whom he spent a summer with and now cannot find. He sings that when he does find his Michèle again, he will ask her in her own language: "Voulez-vous danser avec moi? Do you want to dance a waltz?" Velez also recorded the song in French and German, as "Voulez-vous danser avec moi?" and "Voulez-vous danser avec moi? (Señorita wir sind ein Paar)" respectively. The song was written by Manuel de la Calva and Ramón Arcusa, the team behind Massiel's winning entry in the 1968 Contest, "La, la, la".
