In A Little Spanish Town
Malcolm Lockyer And His Orchestra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thrilling me again
Like that night in spain
Someone is sharing my memories
Wonder does she grieve
Every lovely evening
In a little Spanish town
Stars were peek-a-booing down
'Twas on a night like this
I whispered "Be true to me"
And she sighed: "Si, Si"
Many skies have turned to gray
Because we're far apart
Many moons had passed away
And still she's in my heart
We made a promise and sealed it with a kiss
In a little Spanish town
'Twas on a night like this
Somehow I keep on remembering
Tears that said goodbye
Shining in her eye
Wonder does she keep remembering
Promises of mine
When the moon is shining
In a little Spanish town
'Twas on a night like this
Stars were peek-a-booing down
'Twas on a night like this
I whispered "Be true to me"
And she sighed: "Si, Si"
Many skies have turned to gray
Because we're far apart
Many moons had passed away
And still she's in my heart
We made a promise and sealed it with a kiss
In a little Spanish town
The lyrics to Malcolm Lockyer And His Orchestra's song "In A Little Spanish Town" speak of reminiscing about a past love and a special night spent in a small Spanish town. The song is filled with nostalgia for a time and place where the two lovers made a promise to each other, sealed with a kiss. The singer wonders if the woman he shared this memory with is also thinking of him and their romantic evening. The lyrics evoke a feeling of longing and a sense of a love that is not yet forgotten.
The song's chorus repeats the phrase "In a little Spanish town, 'twas on a night like this," emphasizing the power of the memory and the special feeling the singer has for the town and their time there. The use of the Spanish word "si" meaning "yes" in response to the singer's request to be true also adds to the romantic and exotic atmosphere of the song. The lyrics also touch on the pain of separation, as the singer describes how many skies and moons have passed since that passionate night, but the woman still holds a place in his heart.
Overall, the song captures the essence of a lost love and the memories that remain long after the love has ended. It also showcases the beauty and nostalgia of a romantic experience in a foreign land.
