FRENESÍ Artie Shaw - English words by Ray Charles and S.K. Russell - Spanish words and music by Alberto Dominguez 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 ---------------------------------------
