Darrell Scott - Spanish Is the Loving Tongue lyrics

Artist: Darrell Scott

album: Live at the Station Inn


Spanish is the loving tongue
Bright as music, soft as spray
'Twas a girl I learned it from
Living down Sonora way
I don't look much like a lover
But I say her love words over
Often when I'm all alone
"Mi amor, mi corazon."
Nights when she knew where I'd ride
She would listen for my spurs
Throw them big doors open wide
And raise them laughing eyes of hers
And how my heart would near stop beating
When I'd hear her tender greeting
Whispered soft for me alone
"Mi amor, mi corazon."
Midnight on the patio
Old senora nodding near
Me and my lover talking low
So the Madre, so the Madre, would not hear
And how those hours would go a-flying
And all too soon I'd hear her sighing
As the moonlight brightly shone
"Oh, me amor, mi corazon."
Then one night I had to ride
From a foolish gamblin' fight
And we said our swift goodbyes
On that dark unlucky night
And when I'd loosed her arms from clingin'
With the hoofs her words kept ringin'
As I traveled north alone
"Adios, mi corazon."
I haven't seen her since that night
Oh, I can't cross the line, you know
I'm still wanted for that gamblin' fight
And like as not it's better so
Still I often kind of miss her
Since that last sad night I kissed her
She lost her heart, and I lost my own
"Adios, mi corazon."
