Lyrics
I know a sunny land
Of romance and rhyme
Where sweet bells chime
At evening time
Where love and laughter
Drive all sorrow away
I long to be there today
Where fragrant orange blossoms
Smile at the sky
Maids passing by smile as they sigh
For skies and eyes are friendly
Tender and true
My land I’m singing for you
Chrous
Spain, you’re like a maiden so fair
Twining a rose in her hair
Watching and waiting for me
Blue Mediterranean skies
Kissing the tears from your eyes
There by the summery sea
In my heart, though we be apart
You ring like a lover’s refrain
Soft as the pattering rain
Singing of beautiful Spain
Performance
