lyrics

Babe, this is a dream world, and you my dream girl
Pack up your bags 'cause we headed outta town for the long camino
Travellin’ west to Reno, I'll pick you up in my Gran Torino
Me and my bad bambina, we hit the Lux casino
Cash in the backseat sippin' on a cold mojito
I put my foot on the gas zoom zoom muy rápido
This is Burque tho, we go slow

Como Hey Love, are you living for the moment?
Soy como Hey Love, or just riding through the motion?
[Hey nanina, boy, hey nanina]

OK so actually I drive a used Honda
I get my fix at the supermercado, I always order horchata
‘Cause the AC's broke and the summer heat keeps beatin' hotta
Money? I got nada
I live cheek to cheek, chica, vision to vision
They say “your head in the clouds ese”, I say I musta ascended
Did I fail to mention I flew back from the future
You and I were in it, got a minute?

Como Hey Love, are you living for the moment?
I’m singin’ Hey Love, or just riding through the motion?

And I’m like Hey Love [Hey nanina, boy, hey nanina]
Hey Love [Oye como va oye oye como va va]

Hey Love, Hey Love, Hey Love
Why don't you come on home?
Or pick up your phone?
Maybe I don't got a Gran Torino
But I got game in Gran Turismo
I got a big heart and it beats for Cristo
Wanna make you my esposa
Ojo to ojo, chica

Hey Love, are you living for the moment? [Oooooooooh]
Soy como Hey Love, or just riding through the motion?

And I’m like Hey Love [Hey nanina, boy, hey nanina]
Hey Love [Oye como va, oye oye como]
Hey Love [Hey nanina, boy, hey nanina]
And I’m like Hey Love [Oye como va, oye oye como va va]

And I never quit
Hip hop, get ready for it
Get ready for it
Get ready for it.
