Barcelona

Spanish guitars strummed as passion filled the air 
My heart skipping beats as she danced around me
While she stared
Colorful clothes flowed in sync with her curls of black hair 
By the end of the night I would follow this girl anywhere

Barcelona Barcelona
A few days emblazoned in my memory
Barcelona Barcelona
Such a rare lady indeed

Mornings past noon wrapped with her in my room 
Lost in her reverie 
We walked every street, ate her tapas 
As she preached Catalonia’s history 
Falling in love with her people
Her places, her beguiling beauty 
Her buildings alive with nature
The creative genius of Gaudi

I was stripped of defenses 
Naked humbly brought me to my knees 
I was infatuated, dominated and teased
Convinced when I left that a woman could never be pleased 
We said our goodbyes but I knew I would never leave 

Barcelona Barcelona
My attraction to you is what’s lured mankind to the sea 
Barcelona Barcelona 
Ohh to be young, to be brave, to be free
