The Basement Tapes - may/oct 1967 Spanish is the loving tongue Soft as music, light as spray 'T was a girl it learned it from Living down Sonora way Well i don't look much like a lover Still i say her love words over Mostly when i'm all alone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." Moonlight on the patio Oh se–ora now too ill Me and Juana talkin' low So the madre couldn't hear Oh how these hours would go a-flyin' All too soon i hear her sighin' In her sweet an' sorry tone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." Haven't seen her since that night I can't cross the line you know Wanted for a gamblin' fight Like as not it's better so Still i've always kind of missed her Since that last sad day i kissed her Broke her heart, lost my own Ad“os mi coraz—n. |

New Morning recording session 3, Columbia Studios, NYC - 2.jun.1970 Spanish is the loving tongue Soft as music, bright as spring 'Twas a girl it learned it from Living down Sonora way I don't look much like a lover Still i hear her love words over Mostly when i'm all alone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." On the night that i would ride She would listen for my spurs Throw that big door open wide Raise those laughing eyes of hers Oh how those hours would go a-flyin' All too soon i would hear her sighin' In her sweet an' quiet tone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." Haven't seen, haven't seen her since that night I can't cross, i can't cross the line you know They want me for a gamblin' fight Like as not it's better so. Still i always kind of missed her Since that last sad night i kissed her Broke her heart, left my own Mi amor, mi coraz—n. |

Friend of Chile concert, Felt Forum - 9.may.1974 Spanish is the loving tongue Soft as music, light as spring It was a girl i learned it from Living down Sonora way I don't look much like a lover Still I hear her love words over Mostly when I'm all alone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." On the nights that I would ride She would listen to my spurs Throw that big door open wide Raise those laughing eyes of hers Oh I couldn't stop my heart from beating All too soon I'd hear her cheating In her soft and quiet tone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." |

Blood On The Tracks session 2, A & R Studios, NYC - 17.sep.1974, incomplete ... Mostly when i'm all alone Mi amor, mi coraz—n. On the night that i would ride She would listen for my spurs Throw that big door open wide Raise those laughing eyes of hers. Oh how my heart could not stop beatin' When i'd hear her tender greetin' Whispered soft for me alone "Mi amor, mi coraz—n." But i had to fly one time 'Cause of a stupid gamblin' fight So we said a swift goodbye On that dark unlucky night But in my ears her heart kept ringin' An' my [?] hoofs they kept on clingin' As i galloped north alone Mi amor, mi coraz—n. Never seen her since that night I can't cross the line you know She was mex an' i was white Like as not it's better so Still i always kind of missed her Since that last wild night i kissed her Left her heart, lost my own Adi—s mi coraz—n. |
