I took your picture with my Zippo
I made you laugh so hard that you worried me
You were someone I could talk to
We helped each other get through
Those times that had to be

Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
How sweet you've been to me
Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
How sweet you've been to me

I showed your picture to my friend here
And he said that you looked pretty sexy to him
I said well you know
She was that and more
How I wish that I could see you again

Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
How sweet you've been to me
Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
How sweet you've been to me

I'd give anything for one more dance with her
But now she's gone and I miss the way
She just laughed say yeah
Let's dance say yeah

Now when my mother told me about it
It like to hit my heart so hard
That it nearly broke
Laughing dancer, bold romancer
Save a dance for me in eternity.

Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
How sweet you've been to me
Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
How sweet you've been to me
Sarita, Sarita, Sarita
Save a dance for me in eternity
