Victor Wood Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The one that I even lied for
The one that I'd even died for
You′re the one that I cried for.
Malaguena, hear me sighing
For you left me sad and lonely
Can't you see? That you're my one and only
Can′t you see? My heart is dyin′.
Come to me!
Oh, how I implore you!
I love everything about you
My life is nothing without you.
(Strings adlib)
Malaguena, hear me sighing
For you left me sad and lonely
Can't you see? That you′re my one and only
Malaguena, hear me crying
Can't you see? My heart is dyin′.
Come to me!
Oh, how I implore you!
I love everything about you
My life is nothing without you.
Malaguena!
