Souvenir Of Mexico

[Verse 1]
She was standing there before me
With the stars shining above her
I took one look in her dark eyes
Ah, and I knew that I would love her

Told her I'd love her forever
That I'd never leave, no, never
Then she gave me her heart
Ooh, ooh

[Hook]
Souvenir of Mexico

[Verse 2]
When I kissed her, I was shakin'
Such a kiss I've never tasted
Though I've kissed many before her
All my kisses, they were wasted

I never felt a perfection
Never knew such sweet affection
Kisses straight from the heart
Ooh, ooh-hoo

[Hook]
Souvenir of Mexico

[Verse 3]
Tropical light with the moon shining bright
Holding her in my arms
Ah, the soft summer breeze
Sing a song through the trees and the palm

[Verse 4]
Yeah, the next a-morning, we went walking, mmm
Through the hills where I first met her
With a tear in her eyes, she told me "Boy
It's best for you, it's best for you to forget it", mmm

'Cause she made a vow to her mother
Vow that she would wed another
Now I'm left with a broken heart

[Hook]
Ah, souvenir of Mexico
