Black Rose

[Verse 1]

Born to Cuban descendants

Young, Black, cool, independent

And everybody likes to call her Harlem's Rose

I fell in love from the first glance

She was the definition of romance

Must be a hole in Heaven way up in the skies

[Pre-Chorus]

We started hanging out together day and night

Body was bangin', caliente, so tight

We caught a vibe so strong

I never should have done her wrong

Now I want you back

[Chorus]

And I remember how she used to lay

After the love, all the games we played

Lied to a friend, love's at an end

My Heaven is gone

So I cry a little more each night

Because I'm never gonna hold you tight

Amor, come back to me, Rosita La Negra

Black Rose, la negra

Black Rose

[Verse 2]

As the wind blows the willows

I can still see her face by my pillow

With every tear drop, I almost feel her in my arms

In my arms

My head keeps on pounding

I can't help stop the sound of

The rain above (The cry of love)

Can't look in the mirror 'cause nothing is clearer

Than guilty eyes full of lies

[Pre-Chorus]

We started hanging out together day and night

(We started hanging out)

Body was bangin', caliente, so tight

We caught a vibe so strong

I never should have done her wrong

Now I want you back

[Chorus]

And I remember how she used to lay

After the love, all the games we played

Lied to a friend, love's at an end

My Heaven is gone

So I cry a little more each night

Because I'm never gonna hold you tight

Amor, come back to me, Rosita La Negra

[Bridge]

Not a color in the rainbow

(Black is so beautiful to me)

A velvet flower in the garden

(Wish Heaven would send her back to me)

Just give me the chance and I'll make it right

Girl, I swear

Black Rose

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

And I remember how she used to lay

After the love, all the games we played

(The games we played)

Lied to a friend, love's at an end

My Heaven is gone

So I cry a little more each night

Because I'm never gonna hold you tight

Amor, come back to me, Rosita La Negra

Black Rose, la negra

Black Rose

[Outro]

And I remember how she used to lay

After the love, all the games we played

Lied to a friend, love's at an end

My Heaven is gone

So I cry a little more each night

Because I'm never gonna hold you tight

Amor, come back to me, Rosita La Negra

Black Rose, la negra
