    Lyrics of "Adrenalina"

    I’m burning up with affliction
    Give me your full attention
    I want you to tame my fire now
    Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
    Keep moving now your eyes on me
    It’s like my body’s yours only
    So baby don’t leave me lonely now
    Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh

    We’re like fire and gasoline
    Come and light it up with me
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina
    Just one touch and I’ll ignite
    I’m a flame on dynamite
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina

    Adrenalina

    Oh-oh-oh, this place so fancy
    Let’s go and light up this city
    You’re close enough but I need you closer
    Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
    You got me to this point don’t let go
    No I’m not living not without you
    Yo, you know, and you know I know-oh-oh
    You know I know
    Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh

    We’re likе fire and gasoline
    Come and light it up with mе
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina
    Just one touch and I’ll ignite
    I’m a flame on dynamite
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina

    Adrenalina (Adrenalina)

    [Flo Rida]
    Step in the party ’cause she nodding to my body like hot coals
    Gasoline kerosine stop drop roll
    I can’t blame it on the stove
    911 when she coming down the pole
    Heavy like planes when we touch, can’t get enough
    We get ignited, so excited, you can feel a rush
    Kapow fire more fire when we in the club
    Put up my lighter, got the heat, she got me burnin’ up
    Woah, so hot, lit gotta steam up
    We got the place so inferno when we team up
    Hotspot, hot girl, have you seen her
    We up in smoke, fireworks, adrenalina

    [Senhit]
    Adrenalina
    We’re like fire, gasoline
    Come and light it up with me
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina (Adrenaline)
    Just one touch and I’ll ignite
    I’m a flame on dynamite
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina

    Adrenalina-na-na
    Adrenalina (Adrenalina)
    Just one touch and I’ll ignite
    I’m a flame on dynamite
    So high on adrenaline
    You’re my adrenalina
