scott mcquaig - the little señorita with green eyes lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
one morning in july, a newborn baby cries
her mama holds her tight and hums a spanish lullaby
to the tiny señorita with green eyes

[verse 1]
she wore a tattered dress with faded ribbons
she’s had it since the day her mama died
the people knew her well in rosarito
the little señorita with green eyes

[verse 2]
no one knew exactly where her home was
or how a child so young learned to survive
i saw her on the corner selling flowers
the little señorita with green eyes

[bridge]
she looked up and handed me some roses
there was something in her face i recognized
i remembered one sweet night in rosarito
when a dark+eyed spanish lady held me tight

[instrumental break]

[bridge]
when she looked up and handed me those roses
i saw something in that sweet young smile
her mama was that dark+eyed spanish lady
on that tender moonlit rosarito night
[verse 3]
all at once, i knew what the truth was
time stood still as my heart realized
the child i’ve never known stood before me
the little señorita with green eyes

[outro]
one evening in july, a young child says goodnight
her papa holds her tight and hums a spanish lullaby
to his little señorita with green eyes
