Green-Eyed Girl
Green-eyed girl,
See if you lose, your mocking air.
With your playful charm,
You drive any singer mad.
If you're a singer with pride,
Come sing to the challenge, but be wise.
Don't take a wrong step,
'Cause your patterned shawl
Has already sealed my fate.
Let the fado play, Green-eyed girl,
Now give me your hand.
Green-eyed girl, keep the rhythm,
With the beat of my heart.
Throw me a love song,
That speaks of fado's tale.
A gypsy who loved,
Like I wished to be loved.
As the guitar strums,
That bond was undone,
That held us tight.
What a sad fate, after all,
You were the one who did wrong,
And I'm the one who pays.
Let the fado play, Green-eyed girl,
Now give me your hand.
Green-eyed girl, keep the rhythm,
With the beat of my heart.
