Veracruz

When the night comes rolling in
 My thoughts roll back to you
 And I'm holding you again
 On nights in Veracruz
 When the train whistle blows
 It blows me clean away
 Back to old Mexico
 Sometimes I call your name
 Oh, mi corazon (mi vida, ooo, mi corazon)
 What am I to do?
 If I could only hold on ... to nights in Veracruz
 Down the old cobbled streets
 Ran the rosa linda moon
 Where as lovers we would meet
 You were my passion fruit
 With that smile on your face
 How could I refuse
 Now I long for one more taste
 Of nights in Veracruz
 Well, the sun is coming up
 Dogs are barking, rooster crows
 Black coffee in my cup
 And a chill down in my bones
 Oh, but once upon a time
 There's a place that I once knew
 Where dark eyes still shine
 On nights in Veracruz
