Spanish is a Loving Tongue — текст песни (Marianne Faithfull)

Spanish is a loving tongue

Soft as music, light as spray

twas a boy I learnt it from

Living down sonora way.

He didnt look much like a lover

Yet I say his love words over

Often when Im all alone,

Mi amor, mi corazon.



Moonlight on the patio,

Old señora nodding near.

Me and juan were talking low

So the madre couldnt hear.

How those hours would go a-flying

And too soon Id hear him sighing,

Softly murmuring sweet and low,

"mi amor, mi corazon."



Havent seen him since that night,

He cant cross the line you know.

Wanted for a gambling fight,

Well, perhaps its better so.

Yet I sometimes sort of miss him

Since that last sad night I kissed him

Softly murmuring sweet and low,

"adios, mi corazon."
