The Mission In Guadalajara lyrics

Today was to be a day of fun and fiesta

The wedding day of Juan and lovely Vanessa

Inside the chapel only the padre remains

Everyone waited but Vanessa, she never came.

Ooohh, only sorrow at the mission in Guadalajara

No fiesta, no laughing, no singing

No wedding bells will be ringing

Only sorrow in Guadalajara.

And every year on that very same day in September

He lights a candle and prays that she will remember

Inside the chapel he begs the padre to stay

He swears Vanessa will surely be here today.

Ooohh, only sorrow at the mission in Guadalajara

No fiesta, no laughing, no singing

No wedding bells will be ringing

Only sorrow in Guadalajara.
