Lyrics

[Intro]
Hey baby, how you doin'?
It's really been a long time, you know?
Remember than night?
You remember
[Verse 1]
On a starry winter night in Portugal
Where the ocean kissed the southern shore
There a dream I never thought would come to pass
Came and went like time spent through an hourglass
[PreChorus]
You made love to me like fire and rain
Ooh, you know you've got to be a hurricane
Killing me with kisses, oh, so subtly
You make love forever, baby
You make love forever
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna let you go that easy
You've got to say you love me too
I ain't gonna let you go that easy
I'm gonna give it all to you
[Refrain]
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese
[Verse 2]
Harbor nights, we made love till the morning star
Then you crooned a song to me on your guitar
Was it so familiar, calling soft my name? (Teena)
Sunlight dancing slowly through love's window panes
[PreChorus]
And you made love to me like sugar and spice
Hush my broken heart, this must be paradise
Killing me with kisses, oh, so tenderly
You make love forever, baby
You make love forever
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna let you go that easy
You've got to say you love me too
I ain't gonna let you go that easy
I'm gonna give it all to you
[Refrain]
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese
[Bridge]
Amore Portuguese
Say you love me, baby
Amore Portuguese
Say you love me
[Bridge]
Yo quiero a la ser amor
A feeling too hard to ignore
Say amore Portuguese
You've got to say you love me
[PreChorus]
You knew that you felt good to me, oh, baby, oh
From the first kiss to the last I'm trembling
You made love to me like no other man
And if you please I'd like to go back there again
Killing me with kisses, oh, so tenderly
You make love like, wee
You make love forever
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna let you go that easy
You've got to say you love me too
I ain't gonna let you go that easy
I'm gonna give it all to you
[Refrain]
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
Won't you say it to me, say it to me, say you love me, baby?
Portuguese love
[Refrain]
Amore, amore Portuguese
Aye, say you love me (Portuguese love)
Amore, amore Portuguese
Aye, baby, aye, aye, Portuguese love
Amore, amore Portuguese
Aye, say, say, baby, aye, aye, hey, hey (Portuguese love)
Portuguese amore, amore Portuguese
Say, uh say aye, say aye, aye, aye, hee
[Refrain]
Portuguese love
Portuguese love
Portuguese love

[Outro]
Love me
Say you love me
Love, love me (I love you)
Portuguese amore
Say you love me, say, say
Say you love me, baby
[Outro]
You know what I'm sayin', baby?
Maybe that will express
What I've been going through (I love you)
