Barry Manilow The Night That Tito Played Lyrics

The Night That Tito Played Lyrics

It was a hot night 

the crowd was hangin' in the neighborhood 

everybody there was lookin' so cool 

everyone was feelin' so good 

now, mister puente 

they said he'd be here by ten-thirty 

said he was comin' back to his roots again 

to finds some old friends 



the night that Tito played 

my life forever changed 

I felt my heart and soul come alive 

I felt it all 

movin' and swayin' under the moon 

prayin' to the rhythm of a puente tune 

the night that Tito played 

nothin' was ever the same 



there was Romona 

she came uptown from corona 

right there on the stairway of the subway train 

we danced real slow 

(she was heaven to know) 

she whispered secrets 

the way she kissed me it was perfect 

we held on in the shadows of the city lights 

oh, it felt so right 



the night that Tito played 

my life forever changed 

I felt my heart and soul come alive 

I felt it all 

movin' and swayin' under the moon 

prayin' to the rhythm of a puente tune 

the night that Tito played 

nothin' was ever the same 



the night that Tito played 

my life forever changed 

I felt my heart and soul come alive 

I felt it all 

movin' and swayin' under the moon 

prayin' to the rhythm of a puente tune 

the night that Tito played 

nothin' would ever be the same
