From the recording Cross That River
Lyrics
Dark Spanish Lady
The night was alive with her song
The music I played from my guitar
expressed all my feelings
The candlelight splashed on the wall
We danced two heartbeats in love
My head started reeling
Señor she asked what is your name
I said I am here for one night
So just call me darling
A moth I was drawn to her flame
The scent of the rose in her hair
I knew I was falling
Oh Dark Spanish Lady
Please dance for me now
Let the moonlinght above us
reveal all those treasures you hide
Oh Dark Spanish Lady
What secrets you'll tell
Let this night last forever
and let me believe we're in love
The stars in the sky were here eyes
Her smile is the sunrise you see
on a new summer morning
With hair as dark as the night
Her skin oh so soft, I touched her
I felt so alive
So quickly the cold morning came
I saddled my horse
and rode past her windown so slowly
Just then it started to rain
She waved to me but could not
see those tears in my eyes
