I love to walk these streets
Look up to washing lines
Like sketches in the skies
In the skies
And all these fragrances and sounds
And all these stories of love profound
The love I found
All around
Whenever fortune brings me back to you
Colourful spring or winter hue
You brighten up my blues
I paint a picture of your purple skies
Embellished with those lantern lights
Enchanting starry nights.
Oh let me take you there
Barrios, streets and squares
Let me take you there
Just you and me
Just me and you
And there will come a time
The time our feelings will have aged like ruby wine
Sweet and fine
Those old and curvy and narrow streets
Will bring back vivid memories -
Flamenco beat
Sultry heat.
The dancer’s gorgeous woven wavy dress
Breath-taking sounds of castanets
Gitanas sing their best.
Our hearts will stay forever linked to this
The magic moment of first kiss
Romantic sunny streets
Oh let me take you there
Barrios, streets and squares
Let me take you there
Just you and me
Just me and you
Take you there
Take you there
Just me and you
