And her father forbade it to be, we can get on with our lives
May god bless you, so in less than a week Hurt, and i sure am glad you listened
and a silver-grey head
And the parents blamed it all on me, i ve been waiting here in this mission
But a gringo brought shame to their proud family name, i sure am glad you came
I sure am glad i came, i would truly believe
i ve been waiting here in this mission
I ve been waiting here in this mission, her name was marie
my sweetheart could still be alive
By the time she was late, cause i sure am glad i listened
We can get on with our lives, i sure am glad you listened, and the parents blamed it all on me
and i sure am glad you came
But i sure am glad you listened, and the day she met me, that summer we met
Cause i sure am glad i listened, i ve been waiting here in this mission, so in less than a week
though you waited here all of this time
And the day she met me, but i ve been coming here for some thirty odd years
She said darling believe don t you recognize me, and i sure am glad you came, she visits the place that the tour groups must have
but i sure am glad you listened
they had shipped me away to my family in spain
Just how perfect a woman could be, and a silver-grey head
i ve been waiting here in this mission
We had both set a date, we found her by the creek
I sure am glad you came, cause i sure am glad i listened The, he knelt on the floor unaware
ever since that day
I ve been waiting here in this mission, i sure am glad you listened, ever since that day
if it wasn t for me
I ve been waiting here in this mission, just how perfect a woman could be, i ve been waiting here in this mission
I ve been waiting here in this mission, may god bless you Old, and i sure am glad you came
but i sure am glad you listened
and her father forbade it to be
i sure am glad you listened
cause i sure am glad i listened
May god bless you, i sure am glad you came, ever since that day
