ADOBE WALLS

(Roger Brown/Luke Reed)

Buenos noches, Senorita, I'm mighta pleased to meet ya
Maybe you and I could sit a spell and talk
I'm new to Santa Fe
Just rode into town today
Thought I'd spend some time in these adobe walls

It's dark in this cantina
It's a wonder that I've seen ya
Sittin' with no company at all
I was wonderin' if we might
Dance away this lonely night
To shadows on these old adobe walls

I hear Cielito Lindo softly playing
As I take you in my arms and hold you close
Though I don't understand a word you're sayin'
Your brown eyes tell me all I need to know

These walls have stood for ages
Though time still turns its pages
Hearts are still the same when night begins to fall
Sure as there are stars above
We're not the first to fall in love
That's the magic of these old adobe walls

Now I hear Cielito Lindo softly playing
Take you in my arms and hold you close
Though I don't understand a word you're sayin'
Those brown eyes tell me all I need to know

These old walls have stood for ages
Though time still turns its pages
Hearts are still the same when night begins to fall
As sure are there are stars above
We're not the first to fall in love
That's the magic of these old adobe walls

As sure are there are stars above
We're not the first to fall in love
That's the magic of these old adobe walls
