once upon a lover of mine lyrics

she was my only one
loved me till kingdom come
she took me to that place i've never been before
her body in the night
revealed by candle light
her spanish eyes were shining like diamonds on the shore.
i need her
oh my senorita
love was much so much sweeter
with you in my life
now i know what my heart lacks
every time i think back
to once upon a lover of mine.

i should have read her
before that letter
i should have never let her get inside my heart
she led a gypsy life
disappeared into the night
i miss those spanish eyes lighting up the dark
i need her oh my senorita
love was so much sweeter
wtih you in my life
now i know what my heart lacks
every time i think back
to once upon a lover of mine

the moonlight shadows fell
when underneath her spell
back then when all was well

can't get her off my mind
comes back a thousand times
found out that love was blind
once upon a lover of mine

i need her
oh my senorita
love was so much sweeter
with you in my life
god knows that i miss her
her name i still whisper
how i love to kiss her just one more time

now i know what my heart lacks
every time i think back
to once upon a lover of mine.
