BLUE SPANISH EYES....

Picture

​Blue Spanish Eyes is a romantic tune sung by many well known singers like Elvis Presley.......it has a complicated history and was originally called Moon Over Naples.....  "Moon Over Naples" was a 1965 instrumental composed and originally performed by German bandleader Bert Kaempfert.....then singers wrote lyrics for it and it had some legal hassles thru the years because of this.....but, the music alone or with lyrics is very romantic....I have included the lyrics below.........

This is my own transcription as it is not a tune that is ordinarily played by cellos.....it is a pleasure to play  because it is so smooth  and melodic.....like the instrument is singing the lyrics....

​LYRICS:


Blue Spanish eyes
Teardrops are falling from your Spanish eyes
Please, please don't cry
This is just adios and not goodbye
Soon I'll return
Bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Please say "sí, sí"
Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me

Blue Spanish eyes
Prettiest eyes in all of Mexico
True Spanish eyes
Please smile for me once more before I go
Soon I'll return
Bringing you all the love your heart can hold
Please say "sí, sí"
Say you and your Spanish eyes will wait for me
