It was a fi - es - ta down in Mex - i - co, |
|
And so I stopped a while to see the show; |
|
I knew that fre - ne - si meant “Please love me,” |
|
And I could say fre - ne - si. |
|
|
|
|
|
A hand - some cab - el - ler - o caught my eye; |
|
I stood en - chan - ted as he wan - dered by, |
|
And nev -er know - ing that it came from me, |
|
I gent - ly sighed “fre - ne - si.” |
|
|
|
|
|
Bridge: |
|
He stopped and raised his eyes to mine, |
|
His lips just plea - ded to be kissed; |
|
His eyes were soft as can - dle - shine, |
|
So how was I to re - sist? |
|
And now with - out a heart to call my own, |
|
A great - er hap - pi - ness I've nev - er known, |
|
Be - cause his kiss - es are for me a - lone - |
|
Who would - n't say “fre - ne - si?” |
