(Traditional / Brian Ahern)
|
Spanish is a loving tongue
|
Soft as music light as spray
|
Was a girl he learned it from
|
Living down Sonora way
|
He don't look much like a lover
|
But he says her love words over
|
Mostly when he's all alone
|
Mi amor mi corazon
|
On the nights that he would ride
|
She would listen for his spurs
|
Throw those big doors open wide
|
Raise them laughing eyes of hers
|
How those hours would get to flyin'
|
All too soon he'd hear her sighing
|
In her little sorry tone
|
Mi amor mi corazon
|
He ain't seen her since that night
|
He can't cross the line you know
|
They want him for a gambling flight
|
Like as not it's better so
|
Yet he's always sort of missed her
|
Since that last sad night he kissed her
|
Lost his heart left her own
|
Adios mi corazon
|
Lost his heart left her own
|
Adios mi corazon
|
