Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Amor, amor, my love
This word's so sweet
That I repeat
Means I adore you
Hmm, and amor, amor, my love
Would you deny this heart that I
Have placed before you?
[Verse 2]
I can't find another word with meanin' so clear
My lips try to whisper sweeter things in your ear
But somehow or other
Nothin' sounds quite so dear
And this soft caressin' word I know
[Verse 3]
Amor, amor, my love
When you're away
There is no day
And I know that nights are lonely
Hmm, amor, amor, my love
Make life divine
Say you'll be mine
And you'll love me only
[Verse 4]
Oh, amor, amor, hmm, my love
When you're away
I know there's no day
Hmm, the nights are so lonely
Hmm, amor, amor, my love
Make life divine
Say you'll be mine
And love me only
[Verse 5]
Oh, amor
Amor
Amor
Hmm, amor
Uh-huh
Amor
Ah, la, la, la, la
Amor
