South Texas Night

On a Najavo blanket
Under a buck naked sky
Your sangria lips blow me a little kiss
And I lose all track of time

The taste of tequila
The sound of tejano
The feeling of you by my side
Nothing on earth could convince me
That I should anything else here tonight

The drum of your heart beats against me
And suddenly everything's right
Whenever I'm holding you tight
On a South Texas night

Well, I won you a cheap pair of sunglasses
You hung on that chain 'round your neck
And down there by Saint Christopher
I caught you whispering
Something I'd nevеr admit

The lights of fiesta burned likе old Mexico
Down on San Angelo Street
And I held your hand while you dance on the table
With a bright yellow rose at your feet

The drum of your heart beats against me
And suddenly everything's right
Whenever I'm holding you tight
On a South Texas night

Out here in the desert
The stars run together
Like somebody splattered a brush
And I can't stop grinning
'Cause I got the feeling
Somebody's falling in love

The drum of your heart beats against me
And suddenly everything's right
Whenever I'm holding you tight
On a South Texas night

The drum of your heart beats against me
And suddenly everything's right
Whenever I'm holding you tight
On a South Texas night

On a South Texas night
Whenever I hold you tight
Suddenly everything is so right
On a South Texas night
