Meant to meet you but I couldn't stay
'Til now I never knew how life tears you away
Now I wait for the springtime in Spain
My love
A beautiful being so sad and so strong
You gave me a story, you gave me a song
When he played his guitar, she would weep
My love
So one rainy day that spirit took flight
She made him a cap full of magic and might
For his birthday to rule a great stage
Perform 'til old age
My love
And why did you never arrive?
When we, before you left I saw tears in your eye
And your mama just told me you (ooh)
My love
Estaba en otro sitio
To state he was born, boy got rhythm within
Was to put it so mildly, her crying face grinned
It would spring from all fibres of humanly everythings
My love
Nothing sure, but that love never reasons
Now the world might have lost all its springtimes
And all of the seasons are bleak without you
My love
Estaba en otro sitio
Meant to meet you but I couldn't stay
'Til now I never knew how life tears you away
Now I wait for the springtime in Spain
My love
Estaba en otro sitio
