Spanish Eyes
Carlos Villalobos 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 "Si, si"

Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me

Blue Spanish eyes
Prettiest eyes in all of Mexico
True Spanish eyes

Please smile at me once more before I go
Soon I'll return
Bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Please say "Si, si"

Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me

The use of the phrase "Spanish eyes" throughout the song conveys the idea of something exotic and alluring.

So happy to find this. I still have my CD and am a huge fan. Andre B is an old brother from O'ahu (even made a cameo in my book!). This CD holds precious memories, released on the heels of a time before the invention of the internet, cell phones, streaming corporations... just love of fingers to instruments. MAGIC. Mahalo for continuing the creative journey!

My wife, kids and I were in a small shop in the Old Town section of San Diego in 2000 when I heard this music playing over the PA. I immediately bought he CD when I got back home. Incredibly beautiful music!

Bahia Bay is pure genius! The most beautiful song ever. A timeless classic.

@loslobosjr

Thank you, Tommie!

@tommieyamaguchi7207

I remember when I first heard Bahia Bay on the Radio. I was totally blown away. I can never tire of listening to it. You and your fellow musicians have given the world a beautiful gift in this song and we thank you!

@loslobosjr

@Tommie Daniels Thanks, I'm glad you liked it so much. This was the first album where I wrote, played, produced and mixed everything myself (with guest musicians on a couple of tracks), so I'm glad it had an effect on people

One of my all time favorites. It mentally takes you away to a place with so much passion & love. It melts everything a way. I passed the CD around so much to friends. I don't know where it ended up. Everyone enjoy it so much. Thank you for taking us away to such a beatiful place. I usely don't read the comments. I guess I should. Thanks again so many years of pleasure. I will look up your other works of art

I adore this and I know folks will enjoy this album along with your other music too! Truly gifted with Flamenco music second to none in my opinion! There is nothing out there to compare it to as it has it's own unique sound and creation. A treat for the ears. Looking forward to seeing first time listener comments. :-) It's timeless.....

Looking forward to Esperanza III release. If it has any of the passion that this album and Esperanza II have we are going to be in for incredible listening experience!

Continued success in all you do Carlos and thank-you for having this full album on You Tube! It can't wear out up here like my Cd's LOL!

@loslobosjr

Hi Alan! First off, thanks for your support! I only did these two (la Esperanza and Esperanza II) and then a Christmas release in 2004 on my own label direct from my site which I will release on iTunes, Spotify, etc., this holiday season. I got incredibly busy over the years on other projects, music for tv & film, a move from the label, etc., but... I am finally releasing new music this year. If you want to stay informed please follow me on social media and check in on the web site for new music and news: www.alistarrecords.com THANK YOU!!
