Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Man, oh man, have you been to Spain
Where the joy of laughing people make you happy again?
Women so pretty, even more so at night
While in the street their dance brings onto you such delight
[Verse 2]
And, man, oh man, before you go home
Catch a flight on, to the wonders of Rome
Italy's beauty may put on the show
To arouse all your love, and make your heart grow
[Verse 3]
And I want to go back, to the sweetness of time
I wanna go back, and reminisce what was mine
I wanna go back, again and again
For I'll never forget, your bright eyes as we sat there
[Verse 4]
Man, oh man, in the middle of France
Though odds were against us, I still took a chance
A chance in a lifetime, was with us that night
I found you at last, with love at first sight
[Verse 5]
I want to go back
[Verse 6]
For I'll never forget, your bright eyes as we sat there
[Verse 7]
Man, oh man, in the middle of France
Though odds were against us, I still took a chance
A chance in a lifetime, was with us that night
I found you at last, with love at first sight
[Verse 8]
And I want to go back, to the sweetness of time
I wanna go back, and reminisce what was mine
I wanna go back, again and again
