I look at you in your sad dark eyes
And your gypsy face with your spanish grace
With your words like rhymes and your voice like chimes


Darling, i want to kiss your burning mouth
Your sad dark eys and your ghostlike soul
Darling baby say that you'll be mine


Put your ring on my finger
And comb your long red hair
Put on your sad eyes
And tell me that you care
That you'll be mine, you'll be mine
Until the end of time
