(Bongo intro with smoky trumpet phrases)
(Oye… mira quién llegó…)

I saw her dancing where the ceiling fans turned slow
White dress moving with the legs for days  below
Cigarette laughter drifting through the room
While the band played boleros wrapped in perfume

(Backing vocals: ahh-ay… Habana nights…)

She pulled me close near the piano bar
Said she liked my shoes and the way I held a cigar
We spun together while the old men played
Under red-lit mirrors and the cabaret haze

(Pre-chorus)
And the trumpet cried
Like the city knew something I did not know
Still I followed where her dark eyes told me to go

(Chorus)
In that Havana nightclub
(Hearts beating in time)
We were moving too fast
(Beneath the candlelight)
She kissed me once while the congas rolled
And suddenly the whole room lost control
In that Havana nightclub
(Everything felt right)
Till the family photographs came out late that night

(Piano montuno break)

We slipped outside where the sea breeze ran
Shared sweet rum beneath a peeling awning fan
She laughed and said, “My mother came from Matanzas way”
And I nearly dropped my drink right there where I swayed

(Backing vocals: ay dios mío… ay dios mío…)

I said, “Funny thing, that’s where my uncle lives”
Then she named my grandmother without missing it
The whole band stopped somewhere inside my head
As the percussion kept exploding instead

(Pre-chorus – half-time groove)
And the moonlight spun
While we stared like strangers in a family frame
Trying hard not to laugh through the shock and shame

(Chorus)
In that Havana nightclub
(Hearts beating in time)
We were moving too fast
(Beneath the candlelight)
Two lonely souls underneath the sound
Till the oldest secret finally came around
In that Havana nightclub
(Everything felt strange)
Turns out our family tree had rearranged the game

(Bridge – playful horn section and percussion hits)
Oh-oh-oh
(The trumpet kept swinging)
Oh-oh-oh
(The whole room was singing)
She said, “Well cousin, this is awkward now”
Then we both fell laughing through the crowd

(Final chorus – joyful layered vocals)
In that Havana nightclub
(Life moves in surprise)
Where the music carries
(Beneath tropical skies)
Now every time that old band starts to play
I remember her and laugh the whole night away
In that Havana nightclub
(Still hear the refrain)
Love can disappear but the story remains

(Fade out with crowd laughter, trumpet, and congas)
(Oye… Habana nights…)
