Frenesi

Artie Shaw

Some time ago

I wandered down into old Mexico

While I was there

I felt romance everywhere

Moon was shining bright

And I could hear laughing voices in the night

Everyone was gay

This was the start of their holiday

It was fiesta down in Mexico

And so I stopped a while to see the show

I knew that frenesí meant "Please love me"

And I could say frenesí

A lovely señorita caught my eye

I stood enchanted as she wandered by

And never knowing that it come from me

I gently sighed frenesí

She stopped and raised her eyes to mine

Her lips just pleaded to be kissed

Her eyes were soft as candle-shine

So how was I to resist?

And now without a heart to call my own

A greater happiness I've never known

Because her kisses are for me alone

Who wouldn't say frenesí?



Bésame tu a mí

Bésame igual que mi boca te besó

Dame el frenesí

Qui mi locura te dió

Quien si no fui yo

Pudo enseñarte el camino del amor

Muerto mi altivez

Cuando mi orgullo rodo a tus pies

Quiero que vivas solo para mí

Y que tu vayas por donde yo voy

Para que mi alma sea no mas de ti

Bésame con frenesí

Dame la luz que tiene tu mirar

Y la ansiedad que entre tus labios vi

Esa locura de vivir y amar

Que es mas que amor frenesí

Hay en el beso que te di

Alma, piedad, corazón

Dime que sabes tu sentir

Lo mismo que siento yo

Quiero que vivas solo para mí

Y que tu vayas por donde yo voy

Para que mi alma sea no mas de ti

Bésame con frenesí
