Sevilla tuvo que ser Con su lunita plateada Testigo de nuestro amor Bajo la noche callalda Y nos quisimos tu y yo Con un amor sin pecado Pero el destino ha querido Que vivamos separados Estan clavadas dos cruces En el monte del olvido Por dos amores que han muerto Sin haberse comprendido Estan clavadas dos cruces En el monte del olvido Por dos amores que han muerto Que son el tuyo y el mio Ay, barrio de Santa Cruz Ay, plaza de Doña Elvira Os vuelvo yo a recordar Y me parece mentira Ya todo aquello pasó Todo quedó en el olvido Nuestra promesas de amores En el aire se han perdido Estan clavadas dos cruces En el monte del olvido Por dos amores que han muerto Sin haberse comprendido Estan clavadas dos cruces En el monte del olvido Por dos amores que han muerto Que son el tuyo y el mio Que son el tuyo y el mio
