Standard (EADGBE)

I don't know why

I just know I do

I just can't explain

In this language that I use

Something leaves me speechless

Each time that you approach

Each time you glide right through me

As if I was a ghost

Pre-chorus

If I only could tell you

If you only would listen

I've got a line or two to use on you

I've got a romance we could christen

Chorus

 And there's a word in Spanish

I don't understand

 But I heard it in a film one time

Spoken by the leading man

He said it with devotion

He sounded so sincere

And the words he spoke in Spanish

Brought the female lead to tears

 A word in Spanish, a word in Spanish

If you can't comprehend

Read it in my eyes

If you don't understand it's love

In a thin disguise

And what it takes to move you

Each time that you resist

Is more than just a pretty face

To prove that I exist

Pre-chorus

Chorus

 When manners make no difference

 And my gifts all lay undone

 I trade my accent in on chance

 And fall back on a foreign tongue

Chorus
