Luna Novah

Lyrics

He showed up with sunscreen on
Said “hola” with a little tone
Took three tries to say my name
But he tried — that’s half the game
He brought flowers from the store
Opened every single door
My tía said “he’s tall, that’s good”
My mamá said “can he cook?”

He can’t handle spicy food
But he’s so respectful, dude
He says “sí” in every mood
I kinda like it

Cause latinas love a gringo
Who’s awkward but he tries
He don’t ghost, he texts “goodnight”
He shows up and he arrives
Ay ay ay, qué bendición
He learned “bailar” from salsa
Latinas love a gringo
Who’s confused but muy feliz

He learned spanish on duolingo
Just to call me “mamacita”
He said “your laugh is my favorite”
And smiled like he meant it
He said “mi corazón, be mine”
I said “calm down, it’s only date five”
But he booked the reservations
That’s my love language — organization

My cousins gave the stamp
My friends called him “sweet and handsome”
He said colombia was “romantic”
Aww baby, that’s so precious

’cause latinas love a gringo
Who’s awkward but he tries
He don’t ghost, he texts “goodnight”
He shows up and he arrives
Ay ay ay, qué bendición
He learned “bailar” from salsa
Latinas love a gringo
Who’s confused but muy feliz

He said “amor, meet my mom”
She said “oh my gosh, you’re so fun”
I brought flan, she brought pie
Now we’re eating both at the same time

Yeah latinas love a gringo
Who respects our tías
Dances cumbia kinda weird
But keeps going with alegría
Ay ay ay, qué bendición
Love comes with translation
Latinas love a gringo
And he loves the sazón
