teardrops are falling from your Spanish eyes
Please please don't cry,

The song "Spanish Eyes" by Micke Ahlgrens is a beautiful love song that speaks to the power of love between two people who are physically separated. The lyrics are plaintive and tender, reflecting the singer's deep love and affection for the subject of the song, whose blue Spanish eyes are described as being filled with teardrops. As the singer bids farewell to his love, he assures her that their separation is not permanent, but rather just a temporary parting. He promises to return one day soon, with all the love her heart can hold, and asks her to wait for him until that time arrives.
The song's lyrics evoke a sense of nostalgia for a time and place where love was pure and simple, unburdened by the stresses and strains of modern life. They capture the essence of the deep and abiding love that exists between two people, even when they are separated by great distances. The plaintive, emotional quality of the lyrics is matched by the lovely melody and rhythm of the music, which lends an added layer of depth and meaning to the song.
