Despacito
Starts with a bright acoustic guitar motif over a punchy reggaeton dembow, then layers crisp percussion, warm sub-bass, and rhythmic claps. Urban synths and subtle dancehall FX inject pace, while drops and breakdowns spotlight the infectious groove, emphasizing sensual movement throughout.

Oh
Verse 1
Come on over slowly, baby
Let me show you what I'm feeling
Every moment with you, lady
Got my heart completely healing
The way you move is like a rhythm
That I've never felt before
Every step you take, I'm with you
And I'm always wanting more
Pre-Chorus
Building sensuality
Closer now, don't be afraid
Let the music guide the way
Chorus
Despacito
I wanna take it nice and slow with you
Despacito
Feel the heat between us breaking through
Step by step we're getting closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Despacito, despacito
Girl, I want you here
Verse 2
In the moonlight, we're just dancing
Bodies moving to the beat
Every touch is so enchanting
Feel the fire, feel the heat
Your perfume in the air tonight
Is driving me insane
The way you look into my eyes
I'll never be the same
Pre-Chorus
Building sensuality
Take your time, we got all night
Everything just feels so right
Chorus
Despacito
I wanna take it nice and slow with you
Despacito
Feel the heat between us breaking through
Step by step we're getting closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Despacito, despacito
Girl, I want you here
Bridge
Passionate, rhythmic
Poco a poco, suave suavecito
We're moving to the rhythm, oh so sweet
Your body's like a magnet pulling me
I'm falling deeper into this fantasy
Let me be the one to hold you tight
Dancing with you underneath the stars tonight
Every heartbeat syncing perfectly
This is how it's meant to be
Rap Section
We got the chemistry, the energy
The way you move is everything to me
Taking our time, no need to rush
Every single moment, every touch
From the first look to the final dance
Baby, this could be our only chance
So let's make it last, make it real
Show me how you really feel
Final Chorus
High energy, passionate
Despacito
I wanna take it nice and slow with you
Despacito
Feel the heat between us breaking through
Step by step we're getting closer
Let me whisper in your ear
Despacito, despacito
Girl, I want you here
Despacito
This is something we can feel
Despacito
Baby, this is something real
Outro
Fading with percussion, sensual
Despacito
Suave, suavecito
Despacito
Let's take it slow
