A year pa**ed, away from shores
For I couldn't get away from war

I knew that we were meant to be
And on the beach, beautiful Lola
In a floating dress, she looks so fine
She greets the sailors and drives them crazy
Even the captain loses his mind
What a delight, I felt inside

Then she would come
Straight up to me
And hold me tight

The Cuban girl, crying from the port
On the high seas, she felt so down
The handsome sailor with words of comfort
"Don't cry dear Lola, I won't let you drown"
What a delight, I felt inside
When from the beach
She grabbed her scarf and waved at me
Then she would come
Straight up to me
And hold me tight
I knew that we were meant to be
