Alta Gracia Lyrics

Remember the days we used to share
Remember the time when I was there
I believed every single word you said
Just like a child I lost my head
I didn't care if it was day or night
I just wanted to have you by my side
The moon went up, the sun went down
But you were still around

Alta gracia, my love
Alta gracia, my love
Alta gracia, my love
Alta gracia, my love
Remember how we spent the night
How we kissed and held each other tight
Everything was like a beautiful dream
You were the sweetest woman I've ever seen

How could I know our love wouldn't stand a chance?
I had to go and end this wonderful romance
Now I'm so sad and blue, here without you, what can I do?
I used to love her from the bottom of my heart
Didn't realize that time was slippin' by
Now we're living oh so far apart
I give grace for the days that I held her by my side
By my side
