The Boy From Apartment 512
El Chico Del Apartamento 512
AB Quintanilla III & Ricky Vela
Everyday is the same
In my hallway
I can never reach my door
Without hearing that whistle
Of this guy who tells me
He is waiting for me
What he should do is
Go and take a shower
And some boring old man detains me again
And I fake interest
Then all of a sudden he
Comes out from the elevator
It's the image of my dreams
It's him I want to belong to
(Chorus)
The boy from apartment 512
He is the one who makes my poor heart jump
It's him to whom I write letters for day and night
That I can't give to him
The boy from apartment 512
He is the one who makes me tingle and more
It's him I think and dream of day and night
Him, only him
And an old man invites me, "come here and see me girlie", (ha ha ha)
And I tell him, I don't fall for those old guys
And I walk to my room very slowly
With the hope that I'll see him
And when he leaves for a walk
He salutes me with a smile
And that really conquers me
(Chorus)
But today at last I made up my mind
And I will confess all my love to him
I knock on his door and I get all nervous
This white girl answers the door
And my heart breaks
(Chorus)
I really felt that my heart was breaking
When suddenly she asked me
"Are you looking for my brother?"
(Chorus)
