[Intro]
Que será, oh que será
The future will be, will be with us

[Verse 1]
I've seen the headlines in the paper
They say the end is coming soon
I wanna make love till it's over
If I'm going down, it'll be with you

[Chorus]
Let me love you for a day
Let me have you for a night
Let me take you far away into forever
Ay, ay, ay
I don't wanna let you go
Nena yo
Let me undress your soul
Ay, ay, ay
I will take you to another world
Never go
Let me take you home tonight
Que será, oh que será

[Verse 2]
As the countdown's getting closer
There is madness in the air
I want to be under the covers
Baby, in your arms
You know I'll be there

[Chorus]
Let me love you for a day
Let me have you for a night
Let me take you far away into forever
Ay, ay, ay
I don't wanna let you go
Nena yo
Let me undress your soul
Ay, ay, ay
I will take you to another world
Never go
Let me take you home tonight

[Bridge]
Que será, oh que será
The future will be, will be with us

[Chorus]
Let me love you for a day
Let me have you for a night
Let me take you far away into forever
Let me love you for a day
Let me have you for a night
Let me take you far away into forever
Ay, ay, ay
I don't wanna let you go
Nena yo
Let me undress your soul
Ay, ay, ay
I will take you to another world
Never go
Let me take you home tonight
Ay, ay, ay
I don't wanna let you go
Nena yo
Let me undress your soul
Ay, ay, ay
I'll take you to another world
Never go
Let me take you home tonight
Let me take you home tonight
Let me take you home tonight
Let me take you home tonight

Enrique Martín Morales (born December 24, 1971), commonly known as Ricky Martin, is a Puerto Rican singer, actor and author. Martin began his career at age 12 with the all-boy pop group Menudo. After five years with the group, he released several Spanish-language solo albums throughout the 1990s. He also acted on stage and on TV in Mexico, where he achieved modest stardom. In 1994, he appeared on the US TV soap opera General Hospital, playing a Puerto Rican singer.

In early 1999, after releasing several albums in Spanish, Martin performed “The Cup of Life” at the 41st Annual Grammy Awards show, which became a catalyst in bringing Latin pop to the forefront of the U.S. music scene. Following its success, Martin released “Livin' la Vida Loca”, which helped him attain enormous success worldwide; it is generally seen as the song that began the Latin pop explosion of 1999 and made the transition easier for other Spanish-speaking artists to move into the English-speaking market. Since its release, the song has sold over 8 million copies, making it one of the best selling singles of all time. His first English-language album (also titled Ricky Martin), has sold 22 million copies and is one of the best selling albums of all time. His other studio albums Me Amarás (1993), A Medio Vivir (1995), Vuelve (1998), Sound Loaded (2000), Almas del Silencio (2003), Life (2005), Música + Alma + Sexo (2011), and A Quien Quiera Escuchar (2015). In 2018, he portrayed Antonio D'Amico on The Assassination of Gianni American Crime Story for which he received a nomination for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series or Movie.
