Belinda Bonita is the 11th track on Tallsome Tales.
T'was at my best friend's wedding dance I first laid eyes on her
I walked right up asked her to dance such was her allure
We moved across the floor with a ballroom dancer's grace
I knew that she would be mine when I felt our first embrace
Belinda Bonita o come dance with me tonight
Belinda Bonita o until the morning light
There is no one else who can take your place
You're my only heart's desire
Belinda Bonita o come dance with me tonight
We pledged our love eternal exchanged our wedding rings
We felt like we were floating high as if we both had wings
We glided down the aisle o'r the threshold we did pass
Our new life lay before us I love my darling lass
I came home after work one day not all that long ago
Belinda's bags and clothes were gone I looked both high and low
Not a farewell message could be found have I gone completely mad
Or was Belinda just a dream of a love I never had
Was Belinda just a dream of a love I never had
Belinda Bonita o come stay with me tonight
Bonita Belinda o until the morning light
There is no one else who can take your place
You're my only heart's desire
Belinda Bonita o come stay with me tonight
O come dance with me tonight
O come stay with me tonight
