It Happened in Monterey

It happened in Monterey, a long time ago

I met her in Monterey, in old Mexico

Stars and steel guitars and luscious lips, as red as wine

Broke somebody's heart and I'm afraid that it was mineIt happened in Monterey without thinking twice

I left her and threw away the key to paradise

My indiscreet heart longs for the sweetheart

That I left in old MontereyAh, it happened in Monterey, a long time ago

I met her in Monterey, in old Mexico

Stars, guitars, lips red as wine

Broke somebody's heart and I fear that it was mineIt happened in Monterey and without thinking twice

I left her and I threw away the key to paradise

My indiscreet heart, how it longs for that sweetheart

That I left in old Monterey
