Santa Esmeralda(пасадобль) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sometimes I feel a little mad
Well, don't you know that no-one alive
Can always be an angel
When things go wrong I seem to be bad
I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I never meant to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I've got my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do
'Cause I love you
Baby, don't you know I'm just human
And I've thoughts like any other man
And sometimes I find myself alone and regretting
Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done
But I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
If I seem edgy, I want you to know
That I never meant to take it out on you
Life has it's problems and I've got my share
And that's one thing I never meant to do
'Cause I love you
Baby, don't you know I'm just human
And I've thoughts like any other man
But sometimes I find myself alone regretting
Some foolish thing, some foolish thing I've done
But I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
'Cause I'm just a soul who's intentions are good
Oh Lord, please don't let me be misunderstood
Oh Lord, don't let me be misunderstood
Don't let me be, don't let me be misunderstood
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Era una niña de 7-8 años cuando escuché esta joya por primera vez y me fascinó 😍
Aún la escucho y es fantástica.

Más o menos andaba yo a la misma edad en ese entonces y más tarde pude conseguir el LP y el cassette además de el sencillo de 7 pulgadas
Me da gusto ver un comentario que no menciona a Kill Bill
