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.
