|
The evening falls on Padre Island |
|
Something is wrong, the birds don't fly |
|
They sit quietly in the sand dunes |
|
And watch the sky |
|
They seem to know someone is missing |
|
Even the ocean settles down |
|
They've wait patiently since sunrise |
|
But she don?t come around |
|
Selena, they cry |
|
Without your smile, none of us can fly |
|
Selena, this can't be true |
|
It?s gonna be a lonely world without you |
|
There is no one here on this good earth |
|
Who cannot hear the laughter in your song |
|
You made us dance when hearts were heavy |
|
And our feet were made of stone |
|
Time goes by, there is no answer |
|
It?s hard to think this moment ever came |
|
So many bow their heads in silence |
|
It don't stop the pain, no |
|
Selena, they pray |
|
How could something such as this take you away? |
|
Selena, you were the one |
|
Just when we think it?s all over |
|
Maybe it's just begun |
|
Selena, so full of life |
|
You never had a chance to say goodbye |
|
But it will be whispered now and then |
|
And your name will last forever |
|
Riding on the Corpus Cristi wind |
|
Selena, they pray |
|
Selena, they cry |
