What else could he do
But to plead and implore,
To look in her eyes,
To ask her once more?
 
What can I say to you, Bonita?
What magic words would capture you
Like a soft evasive mist
You are Bonita!
You fly away when love is new.
 
What do you ask of me, Bonita?
What part do you want me to play?
Shall I be the clown for you, Bonita?
I will be anything you say, Bonita.
 
Don't run away, Bonita.
Bonita, don't be afraid
To fall in love with me.
I love you;
I tell you I love you,
I love you, Bonita.
If you love me,
Life will be beautiful, Bonita.
 
I love you! Oh, I love you!
I tell you I love you,
I tell you I love you, Bonita.
If you love me,
Life will be beautiful, Bonita.
