Elton John - A Word In Spanish lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album reg strikes back<br><br>I don't know why<br>I just know I do<br>I just can't explain<br>In this language that I use<br>Something leaves me speechless<br>Each time that you approach<br>Each time you glide right through me<br>As if I was a ghost<br><br>If I only could tell you<br>If you only would listen<br>I've got a line or two to use on you<br>I've got a romance we could christen<br><br>And there's a word in spanish I don't understand<br>But I heard it in a film one time spoken by the leading man<br>He said it with devotion, he sounded so sincere<br>And the words he spoke in spanish brought the female lead to tears<br>A word in spanish, a word in spanish<br><br>If you can't comprehend<br>Read it in my eyes<br>If you don't understand it's love<br>In a thin disguise<br>And what it takes to move you<br>Each time that you resist<br>Is more than just a pretty face<br>To prove that I exist<br><br>When manners make no difference<br>And my gifts all lay undone<br>I trade my accent in on chance<br>And fall back on a foreign tongue
