Spanish Eyes
Bouke Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blue Spanish eyes
Teardrops are falling
From your Spanish eyes

Please, please don′t cry
This is just adios
And not goodbye
Soon I'll return
Bringing you all the love
Your heart can hold
Please say, "Sí, sí"
Say you and your Spanish eyes
Will wait for me

Blue Spanish eyes
Prettiest eyes
In all of Mexico

True Spanish eyes
Please smile for me
Once more before I go

Soon I will return
Bringing you all the love
Your heart can hold
Please say, "Sí, sí"
Say you and your Spanish eyes
Will wait for me




Say you and your Spanish eyes
Will wait for me

Overall Meaning

The song "Spanish Eyes" by Bouke is a sentimental love song about the departure of the singer from the one he loves, who has blue Spanish eyes. The singer asks her not to cry, as his departure is not a final goodbye but merely an "adios". He promises to return soon, and requests her to wait for him with her Spanish eyes. The singer praises the beauty of her eyes, calling them the prettiest in all of Mexico, and begs her to smile for him once more before he leaves. He promises to bring back all the love her heart can hold when he returns, and asks her once again to say "sí, sí", confirming that she and her Spanish eyes will wait for him.


The lyrics of the song express the longing of the singer for the love of his life, and his plea for her to wait for his return. The use of the phrase "Spanish eyes" symbolizes both the beauty and the heritage of the woman, and the word "adios" adds a touch of sadness to the song. The chorus is repeated twice, emphasizing the singer's desire for the woman to wait for him and the power of her Spanish eyes. The song is a touching romantic ballad that speaks to the universal feelings of love and separation.
