Spanish is the loving tongue
(C.B. Clark - M. Williams - B. Simon) Spanish is a loving tongue Soft as music light as spray 'Twas a girl I learned it from Living down Sonora way I don't look much like a lover Yet I said 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 Fling the big door open wide Raise them laughing eyes of hers And my heart would nigh stop beating When I heard her tender greeting Whispered soft for me alone Mi amor mi corazon Moonlight on the patio Old seniora nodding near Me and Juana talking low So the madre couldn't hear How the hours would go a-flying And too soon I hear her sighing In her little sorry tone Adios me corazon But one time I had to fly For a foolish gambling fight And we said a swift goodbye In that blach unlucky night When I'd loosed her arms from clinging With her words the hoofs kept ringing As I galloped north alone Adios mi corazon Left her heart and lost my own Adios mi corazon |
