For a Long Lost Espanya
O how
Ruefully I pine
For a long lost
Espanya,
What I wouldn't give,
To be young again...
And happy as I was back then...
Maria,
full of peace
Do you remember
Francis Albert
Sing songs of Tom Jobim
That mournful afternoon...
Happy as you were back then...
O for
that wide-eyed
Impression of yours,
Paquita
La de Murcia
Of your beloved Marilyn...
Happy as you were back then...
O how
Ruefully I pine
For a long lost
Espanya,
What I wouldn't give,
To be young again...
And happy as I was back then...
