Frenesi

Some time ago
i wandered down into old mexico
while i was there
i felt romance everywhere
moon was shining bright
and i could hear laughing voices in the night
everyone was gay
this was the start of their holiday
it was fiesta down in mexico
and so i stopped a while to see the show
i knew that frenes� meant "please love me"
and i could say frenes�
a lovely se�orita caught my eye
i stood enchanted as she wandered by
and never knowing that it come from me
i gently sighed frenes�
she stopped and raised her eyes to mine
her lips just pleaded to be kissed
her eyes were soft as candle-shine
so how was i to resist?
and now without a heart to call my own
a greater happiness i've never known
because her kisses are for me alone
who wouldn't say frenes�?
B�same tu a m�
b�same igual que mi boca te bes�
dame el frenes�
qui mi locura te di�
quien si no fui yo
pudo ense�arte el camino del amor
muerto mi altivez
cuando mi orgullo rodo a tus pies
quiero que vivas solo para m�
y que tu vayas por donde yo voy
para que mi alma sea no mas de ti
b�same con frenes�
dame la luz que tiene tu mirar
y la ansiedad que entre tus labios vi
esa locura de vivir y amar
que es mas que amor frenes�
hay en el beso que te di
alma, piedad, coraz�n
dime que sabes tu sentir
lo mismo que siento yo
quiero que vivas solo para m�
y que tu vayas por donde yo voy
para que mi alma sea no mas de ti
b�same con frenes�
