Duke Ellington, Charles Mingus
Perdido, I look for my heart
It's perdido
I lost it way down in Torito
The day the fiesta started
Bolero, I sway that they play the bolero
I kissed me the listing sombrero
And that's when my heart departed
High, was the sun when I held him close
Low, was the moon when we said adios
Perdido, my heart ever since is Perdido
I know I must go to Torito
To find what I lost perdido
High was the sun when I held him close
Low was the moon when we said adios
Perdido, goodnight perdido
I lost perdido
