## Lyrics

[Intro]

Dale Yashua

Yeah, Matoma

[Verse 1]

What's meant to be will turn out somehow, ay

But I can't let you walk away right now

Oh, no-no

Yeah this was lovin' at first sight, oh yeah

Now my heart beating out of line, ah yeah

[Pre-Chorus 1]

I know that you believe in destiny

I promise that you won't forget me

Oh, 'cause when your eyes lock with mine

Something 'bout it feels so right

So if you're drinking what I'm drinking

And you're thinking what I'm thinking

Can I tell you something?

Please let me tell you something

[Chorus 1]

Don't say what you want to

Don't say what you want to, yeah

The first time I met you it was so right

No, I can't let our love die

Let's change it all right now

Don't say what you want to

Don't say what you want to

Don't say what you want to

[Verse 2]

What's meant to be is gonna be now, yeah

Ain't no controllin' how it's goin' down

Oh, no-no

It was lovin' at first sight, oh yeah

So, baby, shut up and kiss me, me yeah

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Porque esto sí va funcionar

Lo de nosotros nunca va cambiar

Entonces no perdamos tiempo

Ven y báilame a mi tempo

Bebiendo lo que estoy bebiendo

Sé que estás pensando en lo que pienso

Estoy viendo tus movimientos

Bailándomelo lento

[Chorus 2]

Don't say what you want to

Don't say what you want to, yeah

En el principio

Cuando te conocía

Me enloquecí, no puedes

Parar este amor

Don't say what you want to

Don't say what you want to

Don't say what you want to

[Outro]

Don't say what you want to, oh yeah

Don't say what you want to, yeah

Don't say what you want to, oh yeah

*Dale Yashua

Yeah, Matoma

Don't say what you want to*
