The Night That Tito Played

It was a hot night

The crowd was hangin' in the neighborhood

Everybody there was lookin' so cool

Everyone was feelin' so good

Now, mister puente

They said he'd be here by ten-thirty

Said he was comin' back to his roots again

To finds some old friends

The night that Tito played

My life forever changed

I felt my heart and soul come alive

I felt it all

Movin' and swayin' under the moon

Prayin' to the rhythm of a puente tune

The night that Tito played

Nothin' was ever the same

There was Romona

She came uptown from corona

Right there on the stairway of the subway train

We danced real slow

(she was heaven to know)

She whispered secrets

The way she kissed me it was perfect

We held on in the shadows of the city lights

Oh, it felt so right

The night that Tito played

My life forever changed

I felt my heart and soul come alive

I felt it all

Movin' and swayin' under the moon

Prayin' to the rhythm of a puente tune

The night that Tito played

Nothin' was ever the same

The night that Tito played

My life forever changed

I felt my heart and soul come alive

I felt it all

Movin' and swayin' under the moon

Prayin' to the rhythm of a puente tune

The night that Tito played

Nothin' would ever be the same
