once upon a lover of mine

she was my only one

loved me till kingdom come

she took me to that place i've never been before

her body in the night

revealed by candle light

her spanish eyes were shining like diamonds on the shore. i need her

oh my senorita

love was much so much sweeter

with you in my life

now i know what my heart lacks

every time i think back

to once upon a lover of mine. i should have read her

before that letter

i should have never let her get inside my heart

she led a gypsy life

disappeared into the night

i miss those spanish eyes lighting up the dark

i need her oh my senorita

love was so much sweeter

wtih you in my life

now i know what my heart lacks

every time i think back

to once upon a lover of mine

the moonlight shadows fell

when underneath her spell

back then when all was well

can't get her off my mind

comes back a thousand times

found out that love was blind

once upon a lover of mine

i need her

oh my senorita

love was so much sweeter

with you in my life

god knows that i miss her

her name i still whisper

how i love to kiss her just one more time

now i know what my heart lacks

every time i think back

to once upon a lover of mine.
