Mambo Salentino Lyrics in English BoomDaBash , Alessandra Amoroso

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mambo Salentino by BoomDaBash from Italian to English.
Intro
Dance
Dance
Three in the morning, outta our heads
Still out, when we dance
Smeared makeup, I wanna dance
Salentino mambo
The Sun Highway brings me back to you
I'm in such a rush, it's my fifth coffee
When I'm back I don't want a minute of stress
I just wanna feel good, you're worse than me
Yeah, you're outta your mind
Like summer in Salento
Finding ourselves inside a dancefloor
Going back in time, my beauty
Tell me what happens if we run away in a second
Without looking back and your mouth becomes mine
When I walk down the street I feel summer already in the air
Our shadows on the sand and at least till morning
Salentino mambo
Mambo, mambo
Salentino mambo
Mambo, mambo
A star is falling
It's just a dot in the sky
But the prettiest one's already on the ground next to me
I've already made the wish
She's dancing like the world's watching her
She moves those hips like she's dancing
Princess of the hood, she looks like a showgirl
You're different, you're special, you're Salentinian
Tell me what happens if we run away in a second
Without looking back and your mouth becomes mine
When I walk down the street I feel summer already in the air
Our shadows on the sand and at least till morning
Salentino mambo
Mambo, mambo
Salentino mambo
Mambo, mambo
Bridge
It won't be forever but
One single night under the stars is enough for me
Even if it's as quick as a passing train
It won't be perfect but
It's so nice to be here dancing wrapped in your arms
Outro
Mambo
A Salentino mambo
Mambo
A Salentino mambo
Mambo
A Salentino mambo
Mambo
A Salentino mambo
Mambo

SONG MEANING

Mambo Salentino is a sunny love letter to the Salento region in southern Italy, where palm-lined beaches, all-night parties and spontaneous romances rule the summer. BoomDaBash teams up with fellow Salentina Alessandra Amoroso to paint the scene: it is 3 a.m., make-up is smudged, coffee is keeping everyone awake and the only plan is to keep dancing. Over a lively reggae-pop beat, the singers invite us to jump in the car, speed down the Autostrada del Sole and chase that carefree feeling that only a hot Mediterranean night can give.

Between sips of espresso and wishes on shooting stars, the song celebrates the here and now. Stress is banned, memories are made on the dancefloor and even if the romance lasts just one night, it is worth every heartbeat. “Mambo Salentino” is your ticket to an endless Italian summer filled with music, sand under your feet and a kiss just before dawn.
