Carmen, Carmen, Carmen      Tonight I am aching, my body is shaking   Tonight Carmen's coming back home   Tonight there'll be no room for tears in my bedroom   Tonight Carmen's coming back home      Tonight as I stand here, I notice my hand here   Is trembling as never before   My feelings, I can't hide, resistance has all died   My pride will rush outside   The moment she walks through the door      The lips that have kissed her, that's loved her and missed her   Are lips that have cursed her at night   In anguish and torment, I've cursed as the night went   From darkness till dawn's golden light      I thought of just taking these two hands and breaking   The body I'm waiting to touch   I find while I'm waiting, there's no time for hating   While anticipating the woman I've wanted so much      I've placed pretty flowers to brighten the hours   I put brand new sheets on the bed   I'm nervous, I'm trembling, recalling remembering   The way that she tosses her head      I've given much thought to the fact that   I ought to have more control over my life   How can I fight it? How can I deny it?   There's no way to hide it   The love that I have for my wife      Carmen, Carmen, Carmen
