SPANISH SONG.
I COME to thee
From across the sea,
To thee, Dolores.
From across the sea,
To thee, Dolores.
I play my guitar
Beneath a star,
For thee, Dolores.
Beneath a star,
For thee, Dolores.
Two black eyes look down on me,
Two cherry lips they laugh with glee,
Oh, my Dolores!
Two cherry lips they laugh with glee,
Oh, my Dolores!
A red rose flutters to my feet,
With it comes a message sweet
From my Dolores.
With it comes a message sweet
From my Dolores.
Looking from behind a fan,
As a Spaniard only can,
Looks Dolores.
As a Spaniard only can,
Looks Dolores.
I glance up to the balcony,
A fairy form up there I see—
It is Dolores!
A fairy form up there I see—
It is Dolores!
