“Te Amo” (English: “I Love You”) is a song performed by Barbadian singer Rihanna. It is written by Mikkel S. Eriksen, Tor Erik Hermansen, James Fauntleroy II and Rihanna and produced by Stargate. It serves as the third international and fifth overall single from her fourth album Rated R.

Robert Copsey of Digital Spy awarded the song four out of five stars stating that “After the rather explicit ‘Rude Boy’ campaign, Rihanna’s taking a well-deserved break from titillating the blokes here – only to find herself the object of another lady’s affections. One of her Rated R LP’s less menacing moments, ‘Te Amo’ finds La Fenty grappling with her sexuality over some irresistible, latin-infused Stargate beats.”

Lyrics for Rihanna – Te Amo

Verse 1:
Te amo, te amo, she say’s to me.
I hear the pain in her voice.
Then we danced underneath the candleabra, she takes the lead.
That’s when i saw it in her eyes, it’s over.

Chorus:
Then she said Te amo, then she put her hand around me waist.
I told her no she cried Te amo,
i told her i’m not gonna run away, but let me go.
My soul has arrived, without asking why.
I said Te amo, wish somebody would tell me what she said.
Don’t it mean I love you.
I think it means I love you.
Don’t it mean I love you.

Verse 2:
Te amo, te amo, she’s scared to breathe.
I hold her hand, i got no choice, uhh.
Pulled me out on the beach, danced in the water, I start to leave.
She’s begging me and asking why it’s over.

Chorus:
Then she said Te amo, then she put her hand around me waist.
I told her no she cried Te amo,
i told her i’m not gonna run away, but let me go.
My soul has arrived, without asking why.
I said Te amo, wish somebody would tell me what she said.
Don’t it mean I love you.
I think it means I love you.
Don’t it mean I love you.

Bridge:
Yes we can dance.
But you gotta watch your hands.
Watch me all night.
I move under the light because i understand.
That we all need love, and i’m not afraid.
I feel the love but i don’t feel that way.

Chorus:
Then she said Te amo, then she put her hand around me waist.
I told her no she cried Te amo, i told her i’m not gonna run away, but let me go.
My soul has arrived, without asking why.
I said Te amo, wish somebody would tell me what she said
Don’t it mean I love you.
I think it means I love you.
Don’t it mean I love you.
I think it means I love you, I love you.

Te amo, te amo, don’t it mean i love you.
