[Verse 1]
Spanish is the loving tongue
Soft as music, light as spray
Was a girl I learned it from
Living down Sonora way
I don't look much like a lover
Yet, I say her love words over
Often when I'm all alone
"Mi amor, mi corazón"

[Verse 2]
Moonlight on the patio
Old "señora" nodding near
Me and Juana talkin' low
So her "madre" could not hear
How those hours would go a-flyin'
And all too soon I'd hear her sighin'
In her little sorry tone
"Mi amor, mi corazón"

[Verse 3]
Never seen her since that night
I can't cross the line, you know
I'm wanted for a gamblin' fight
Like as not, it's better so
Yet, I've always kind of missed her
And that last sad night I kissed her
I left her heart and lost my own
"Adiós, mi corazón"
