She was standing there before me
With a star shining above her
I took one look in her dark eyes
Ah, and I knew that I would love her
Told her I'd love her forever
That I'd never leave, no, never
Then she gave me her heart
Ooh, ooh
Souvenir of a-Mexico
When I kissed her, I was shakin'
Such a kiss I've never tasted
Though I've kissed many before her
All my kisses, they were wasted
I never felt a perfection
Never knew such sweet affection
But kisses straight from the heart
Ooh, ooh-hoo
Souvenir of a-Mexico
Tropical light with the moon shining bright
Holding her in my arms
Ah, the soft summer breeze
Sing a song through the trees and the palm
Yeah
The next a-morning
We went walking, mmm
Through the hills where I first met her
With a tear in her eyes
She told me "Boy, it's best for you
It's best for you to forget it", mmm
'Cause she made a vow to her mother
Vow that she would wed another
Now I'm left with a broken heart
Ah, souvenir of a-Mexico
