Malagueña

She looked into my eyes
Though I had tipped my cap
Though I had tipped my cap
She looked into my eyes

She had the sweetest smile
On that hot summer night
On that hot summer night
She had the sweetest smile

She was simply stunning
I thought I was in a dream
Because out of all of us
The girl chose to look at me

Something stirred inside me
Something unexplainable
Maybe even unattainable
Began to stir inside of me

It was a newfound inspiration
Like music had a new elation
The music had a new elation
Because the girl also liked me

The beginning of a new romance
It was like we were in a trance
I had fallen in love with the girl
And the girl fell in love with me

Malagueña…
Woman of my Spanish dreams
I saw her face in a mystic vision
With a purposeful definition
Of the love she would give to me

And as she sleeps besides me
I caress her like it’s the first time
My heart still twirls and dances
Remembering when she looked at me
How she looked into my eyes
