And her eyes are like skies that will rain

But there's work to be done, and she does not complain

Her children are so far away

I heard you crying, I heard you pray

Now you must go, and it's so hard to say



[Chorus:]

Goodbye, Carmen

Thank you for staying with us for a while [With your pretty smile]

And someday you'll get home again

Goodbye, Carmen

Hasta manana or who knows when (It all depends)

Goodbye...



We're convinced our intentions are good

But we live in this world often misunderstood

Can you feel it? (Uh-huh)

I can feel it (d-doh)

And no one seems to care much, and its so hard to say



[Chorus]



Carmen...careful what you do, be careful what you see, Carmen

We will always be with you



Turn around but she's lost in the sun

There was so much to say, but she's already gone, so

Thank you Carmen, don't be afraid this is not the end,

So rest your head, I hope someday we will meet again.

Goodbye, Carmen

Hasta manana or never again

But you're my friend Carmen

Goodbye...Goodbye...Goodbye..........
