LOVE IS IN CONTROL (FINGER ON THE TRIGGER) (Jones/Temperton/Ross, 1982)

I've hung around with big shots
Never knew love was in the sights
I guess I missed the target
Caught up in a different line of fire
But I know since I've been aiming
For the sweetness in your soul
Your name is on my bullet
And it's getting ready to explode

There's been a change inside my life
(And I just wanna let you know)

Chorus:
I've got my finger on the trigger
Love is in control
I've got my finger on the trigger
I ain't letting go

(Bass line: 
Baby, let's have some fun 
A won't cha be my
My number one) 

Mama used to tell me 
Girl, you better load your gun up right 
She said ya, ya gotta come out smokin' 
Hit it with your best shot every time 
Well I, I didn't understand her 
Till you walked right into range 
I saw your love at twenty paces 
And I knew I'd won the game 

You better raise your heart up high 
(Or love will blow you right away) 

Chorus 

Leave off the safety catch 
There ain't no risk 
We're gonna have some fun, ooh 
I've got cha, love's begun 
So stay with me 
Until the mornin' sun, ooh

You're superbullet number one 

Bass line 

There's been a change inside my life 
(And I just wanna let you know)

Chorus

SPANISH TRANSLATION:


EL AMOR ESTÁ AL MANDO (DEDO EN EL GATILLO) (Jones/Temperton/Ross, 1982)

He perdido el tiempo con grandes disparos
Nunca supe que el amor estaba a la vista
Creo que fallé la diana
Atrapada en una línea de fuego distinta
Pero sé que desde que estoy apuntando
A la dulzura de tu alma
Tu nombre está en mi bala
Y está a punto de explotar

Ha habido un cambio en mi vida
(Y tan sólo quiero hacértelo saber)

Estribillo:
Tengo mi dedo en el gatillo
El amor está al mando
Tengo mi dedo en el gatillo
No voy a dejarlo marchar

(Línea de bajo:
Cariño, pasémoslo bien
Quiero que seas mi
Mi número uno)

Mamá solía decirme
Nena, mejor que cargues bien tu pistola
Decía que tenías que salir echando humo
Acertarlo con tu mejor disparo cada vez
Bien, yo, yo no la entendía
Hasta que te pusiste a tiro
Vi tu amor a veinte pasos
Y supe que iba a ganar el juego

Mejor que levantes bien alto tu corazón
(O el amor te arrastrará)

Estribillo

Quita el cierre de seguridad
No hay riesgo
Vamos a pasarlo bien, ooh
Te tengo, el amor ha empezado
Así que quédate conmigo
Hasta el sol de la mañana, ooh

Eres la superbala número uno

Línea de bajo

Ha habido un cambio en mi vida
(Y tan sólo quiero hacértelo saber)

Estribillo
