Selenas Lyrics

A desert rose grows alone among dirt and stone

No one knows the body an aroma all its own

She refuses to be chosen but fate is unspoken

As life awoken at night it's broken

Just a token of my love do you trust me

You don't have to love me reach out and touch faith

Your voice is so sweet it makes angels cry

Cool steel rain in a warm Texas sky

There's war at the border over who should be free

Lost people fighting for the American dream

So sing that sweet song of unity

Harmony culture community

The sweet song of a mockingbird

The most beautiful song I ever heard

The stars shine bright at night

And light up the big Texas sky

Selena!

The most beautiful sound I ever heard

She grew up in Corpus Christi

Selena, Selena!

Oh Selena you remind me of a west side story

Alas this is a sad song it has no glory

We used to dance until the night was gone

Bidi bidi bidi bom bom bidi bidi bidi bom

You could pierce the silence like a whippoorwill

Your voice was the most beautiful sound to hear

When the devil shot you down and took your young life

You spread angel wings and learned how to fly

Tears in eyes as fans ask why death's embrace

Familiar memories set in a memorial place

An international treasure the world has changed again

The time of your life is what you make it my friend

In the end we all follow suit but which path do you choose

It depends on how much you have to lose

The material is immaterial in the ethereal realm

I choose love with Jesus at the helm

Selena!

The most beautiful sound I ever heard

She grew up in Corpus Christi

Selena, Selena!
