It falls, the light, by your side
And flows into a sea of lost dreams
The ocean opens its arms to lost souls
And toils the night, so it seems

And who can recall the lost faith in her
The distant look in your eyes
Spanish guitars and night plazas
In a park, you can hear lovers cry

Here where the children are singing
I kissed the sleep on your brow
Here where the children are weeping
I held you 'till your heart became mine

Somewhere deep in the midnight
Night birds sent out their calls
Somewhere far from the mountainous
Shadows of leaves touch the walls
I touch, mid-dance with the heartbreak
Of those who kept standin' within walls
Showed me its love in the darkness
Love, is it? It comes and it goes

Here where the children are singing
I kissed the sleep on your brow
Here where the children are laughing
I held you till your heart became mine

(La la la la, la la la la)

Falls the light by your side
It flows into a sea of lost dreams
The ocean opens its arms to lost souls
And toils the night, so it seems

And who can recall the lost faith in her
The distant look in your eyes
Spanish guitars and night plazas
In a park you can hear lovers cry

Here where the children are singing
I kissed the sleep on your brow
Here where the children are weeping
I held you 'till your heart became mine

(La la la la la, la la la la la la)
