Spanish is the loving tongue
Soft as music, light as spray
'T was a girl it learned it from
Living down Sonora way

Well I don't look much like a lover
Still I say her love words over
Mostly when I'm all alone
Mi amor, mi corazón

Moonlight on the patio
Oh señora now too ill
Me and Juana talkin' low
So the madre couldn't hear

Oh how these hours would go a-flyin'
All too soon I hear her sighin'
In her sweet and sorry tone
Mi amor, mi corazón

Haven't seen her since that night
I can't cross the line you know
Wanted for a gamblin' fight
Like as not it's better so

Still I've always kind of missed her
Since that last sad day I kissed her
Broke her heart, lost my own
Adios mi corazón
