Starting from the party all I wanted was somebody to breakdown, (and shakedown)
Then from the center of attention came a sudden intervention of love
And now the bottle of Bacardi’s got me moving to the sound of the beat now, (the beat now)
And like the fire to the match, I am romantically attached to your touch
I saw you standing there from across the room,
And I knew what you were thinking
The night had just begun, it was a quarter to ten,
It was time we started drinking
You walked right up to me and had this look in your eyes,
Yeah, I think I nearly lost it
You offered me a glass, but I was so into you that I think I nearly dropped it
So…
Starting from the party all I wanted was somebody to breakdown, (and shakedown)
Then from the center of attention came a sudden intervention of love
And now the bottle of Bacardi’s got me moving to the sound of the beat now, (the beat now)
And like the fire to the match, I am romantically attached to your touch
You acted in disguise, but I could recognize all the hints that you were placing
But then you took me by surprise when you led me to your room
Yeah, my blood pressure was raising
My thoughts began to stir, and my vision was blurred from the shots we had been drinking
But then you grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me in for a kiss,
Yeah, your fragrance had me thinking
So…
Starting from the party all I wanted was somebody to breakdown, (and shakedown)
Then from the center of attention came a sudden intervention of love
And now the bottle of Bacardi’s got me moving to the sound of the beat now, (the beat now)
And like the fire to the match, I am romantically attached to your touch
And when the night came to an end I was floating half-asleep in a dream now,
And when the sun began to rise I realized that you were here in my arms…
All because it…
Started at the party, all I wanted was somebody to breakdown, (and shakedown)
Then from the center of attention came a sudden intervention of love
And now the bottle of Bacardi’s got me moving to the sound of the beat now, (the beat now)
And like the fire to the match, I am romantically attached to your touch
