Lyrics
- Evenings are crowded with memories
Thrilling me again
Like that night in Spain
Someone is sharing my memories
Wonder does she grieve
Every lovely evening
Chorus:
In a little Spanish town
‘Twas on a night like this
Stars were peek-a-booing down
‘Twas on a night like this,
I whispered “Be true to me”
And she sighed, “Si, Si”
Many skies have turned to gray
Because we’re far apart
Many moons have passed away
And still she’s in my heart
We made a promise and sealed it with a kiss
In a little Spanish town,
‘Twas on a night like this
- Somehow I keep on remembering
Tears that said goodbye
Shining in her eye
Wonder does she keep remembering
Promises of mine
When the moon is shining
