Spanish Is a Loving Tongue

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 flying

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 gamblin’ fight

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
