Lyrics
We make decisions every day
How could I know that I'd be very far away?
In my head - I was on a Spanish island
In a red chair, looking out to sea
Oh - oh, the clouds are so beautiful
And the bright sky is wonderful to see.
Lovely seniorita, In a long white dress, whispering to me
Oh my hero, my handsome hero
How could she know that I was the villain to be?
Oh - oh, her mother told her
Don't trust the gringo because he'll leave
You in heartache, and he;ll lie
And you'll be very, very lucky not to die.
I see the children, playing in the street
And I'm walking to a very strange beat
Oh my darling, my Latin lover
My tears are falling, and I'm crying and I'm weak
Oh - oh, the clouds were so beautiful
And the bright sky was wonderful to see
Oh my darling, my Latin lover
I was too dangerous to meet.
