  • She was my only one
    Loved me till kingdom come
    She took me to that place I've never been before
    Her body in the night
    Revealed by candle light
    Her spanish eyes were shining like diamonds on the shore.
    I need her
    Oh my senorita
    Love was much so much sweeter
    With you in my life
    Now I know what my heart lacks
    Every time I think back
    To once upon a lover of mine.

    I should have read her
    Before that letter
    I should have never let her get inside my heart
    She led a gypsy life
    Disappeared into the night
    I miss those spanish eyes lighting up the dark
    I need her oh my senorita
    Love was so much sweeter
    Wtih you in my life
    Now I know what my heart lacks
    Every time I think back
    To once upon a lover of mine

    The moonlight shadows fell
    When underneath her spell
    Back then when all was well

    Can't get her off my mind
    Comes back a thousand times
    Found out that love was blind
    Once upon a lover of mine

    I need her
    Oh my senorita
    Love was so much sweeter
    With you in my life
    God knows that I miss her
    Her name I still whisper
    How I love to kiss her just one more time

    Now I know what my heart lacks
    Every time I think back
    To once upon a lover of mine. Writer/s: DENNIS MORGAN, SIMON CLIMIE, TAYLOR HICKS
