SHE CALLS OUT TO THE MAN ON THE STREET
"SIR, CAN YOU HELP ME?
IT´S COLD AND I´VE NOWHERE TO SLEEP,
IS THERE SOMEWHERE YOU CAN TELL ME?"


HE WALKS ON, DOESN´T LOOK BACK
HE PRETENDS HE CAN´T HEAR HER
STARTS TO WHISTLE AS HE CROSSES THE STREET
SEEMS EMBARRASSED TO BE THERE


OH THINK TWICE, IT´S ANOTHER DAY FOR
YOU AND ME IN PARADISE
OH THINK TWICE, IT´S JUST ANOTHER DAY FOR YOU,
YOU AND ME IN PARADISE


SHE CALLS OUT TO THE MAN ON THE STREET
HE CAN SEE SHE´S BEEN CRYING
SHE´S GOT BLISTERS ON THE SOLES OF HER FEET
CAN´T WALK BUT SHE´S TRYING


OH THINK TWICE, IT´S ANOTHER DAY FOR
YOU AND ME IN PARADISE
OH THINK TWICE, IT´S JUST ANOTHER DAY FOR YOU,
YOU AND ME IN PARADISE


OH LORD, IS THERE NOTHING MORE ANYBODY CAN DO
OH LORD, THERE MUST BE SOMETHING YOU CAN SAY


YOU CAN TELL FROM THE LINES ON HER FACE
YOU CAN SEE THAT SHE´S BEEN THERE
PROBABLY BEEN MOVED ON FROM EVERY PLACE
´COS SHE DIDN´T FIT IN THERE


OH THINK TWICE, IT´S ANOTHER DAY FOR
YOU AND ME IN PARADISE
OH THINK TWICE, IT´S JUST ANOTHER DAY FOR YOU,
YOU AND ME IN PARADISE

ELLA LLAMA AL HOMBRE EN LA CALLE
´SEÑOR, ¿PUEDE AYUDARME?
HACE FRÍO Y NO TENGO LUGAR DONDE DORMIR
¿PUEDE RECOMENDARME ALGÚN LUGAR?´


ÉL SIGUE CAMINANDO, NO MIRA ATRÁS
SIMULA NO PODER OÍRLA
COMIENZA A SILBAR MIENTRAS CRUZA LA CALLE
PARECE AVERGONZARSE DE ESTAR ALLÍ


PIÉNSALO DOS VECES, ES OTRO DÍA PARA
TI Y PARA MI EN EL PARAÍSO
 PIÉNSALO DOS VECES, ES OTRO DÍA PARA TI,
PARA TI Y PARA MI EN EL PARAÍSO


ELLA LLAMA AL HOMBRE EN LA CALLE
ÉL PUEDE VER QUE ELLA HA ESTADO LLORANDO
ELLA TIENE AMPOLLAS EN LAS PLANTAS DE SUS PIES
NO PUEDE CAMINAR PERO LO ESTÁ INTENTANDO


PIÉNSALO DOS VECES, ES OTRO DÍA PARA
TI Y PARA MI EN EL PARAÍSO
OH, PIÉNSALO DOS VECES, ES OTRO DÍA PARA TI,
PARA TI Y PARA MI EN EL PARAÍSO


OH SEÑOR, ¿NO HAY NADA MÁS QUE ALGUIEN PUEDA HACER?
OH SEÑOR, DEBE HABER ALGO QUE PUEDAS DECIR


PUEDES DECIRLO POR LOS RASGOS DE SU CARA
PUEDES VER QUE ELLA ESTUVO ALLÍ
PROBABLEMENTE HA SIDO ECHADA DE TODOS LADOS
PORQUE ELLA NO ENCAJABA ALLÍ


OH, PIÉNSALO DOS VECES, ES OTRO DÍA PARA
TI Y PARA MI EN EL PARAÍSO
OH, PIÉNSALO DOS VECES, ES OTRO DÍA PARA TI,
PARA TI Y PARA MI EN EL PARAÍSO

I want you to love me, like I'm a hot guy

So boy forget about the world cuz it's gon' be me and you tonight
I wanna make your bed for ya, then imma make you swallow your pride


[CHORUS]
Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world...
Like I'm the only one that's in command
Cuz I'm the only one who understands how to make you feel like a man
Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart

Want you to take me like a thief in the night
Hold me like a pillow, make me feel right
Baby I'll tell you all my secrets that I'm keepin', you can come inside
And when you enter, you ain't leavin', be my prisoner for the night


[CHORUS]
Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world...
Like I'm the only one that's in command
Cuz I'm the only one who understands, like I'm the only one who knows your heart, only one...


Take me for a ride
Oh baby, take me high
Let me make you first
Oh make it last all night
Take me for a ride
Oh baby, take me high
Let me make you first
Make it last all night


[CHORUS]
Want you to make me feel like I'm the only girl in the world
Like I'm the only one that you'll ever love
Like I'm the only one who knows your heart
Only girl in the world...
Like I'm the only one that's in command
Cuz I'm the only one who understands how to make you feel like a man
Only girl in the world...
Girl in the world...
Only girl in the world...
Girl in the world...

All Saints Day in Spain

All Saints Day in Spain (Todos Los Santos) takes place on November 1st. It is a national public holiday when people honor the saints and remember all the dead. Spanih people visit the local cemeteries and lay flowers on the graves of their deceased relatives.

As well as the religious side, we cannot forget the typical sweets of these days: people eat "huesos de santo’ (saint’s bones), which are made of marzipan dough rolled into thick thumb-size tubes and filled with sweet egg yolk.

One of the All Saints’ traditions across Spain is the performing of the play Don Juan Tenorio, written by José Zorrilla. It is a story of Don Juan's choice between salvation and damnation. The third act of the play is set in a cemetery where Don Juan expresses his regrets and begs forgiveness at the tomb of his fiancee, Doña Ines, for abandoning her.
