Spanish Eyes Lyrics

Lyrics
Blue Spanish eyes.
Teardrops are falling from your Spanish eyes.
Please please don't cry.
This is just adios and not good-bye.
Soon I'II 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 for me once more before I go.
Soon I'II 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 for me once more before I go.
Soon I'II return, bringing you all the love your heart can hold.
Please say: si si...
Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me.
You and your Spanish eyes will wait for me.
