Lyrics:

Once upon a time
A purple moon awakened over cypresses and chimes
The air breathed April orange blossoms
Cinnamon and crime
A silver light beheld the sight
Of Moorish towers dripping water gardens
Under the old Alhambra night
Walking all alone
I knew about the spell of being a sultan on his throne
The fragile soul of beauty
And the spirit of the unknown
The excited breath of love and death
The raving visions of bewildered passions
Written on the starry breadth
Lost in La Alhambra
In a night where a breeze is a sigh
Making love to a murmuring stream
Lost in La Alhambra
Lost in a dream
Suddenly a hand
Awakened me from ecstasy to make me understand
That I got lost while wandering along this wonderland
I turned to see, who could it be?
And I found Irving, the tale-teller
Dancing like a fool in front of me
Welcome, my dear friend
La Alhambra is the beginning of a tale that never ends
There's no way out, no getting back if that's what you pretend
You'll never find the path behind
This fool in front of you gave up long time ago
While seeking peace of mind
Lost in La Alhambra
In a night where a breeze is a sigh
Making love to a murmuring stream
Lost in La Alhambra
Lost in a dream
Lost in La Alhambra
Lost in a dream
