Malagueña lyrics

"Fly away!" Said my carefree heart

"To the pace where the daydreams start".

"Fly away!" Said my heart to me.

"To the shore of the moonlit sea"

Malagueña, your eyes shamed the purple sky.

You were as fair as I dreamed you would be;

I loved and left you for I never could deny

The gypsy strain in me.

Up a hill, down a stream

I follow in a dream.

Long have I travelled, my love,

Since the night we met,

Seeking and wandering a way to forget.

But it's no matter by what path I may depart

I can't escape from my heart!

Malagueña!
