Cal Tjader and Carmen McRae Besame Mucho

1982 album Heat Wave

Poncho Sanchez Conga, Percussion


LYRICS (English)
Kiss me, kiss me a lot,
As if tonight was the last time.
Kiss me, kiss me a lot,
I fear to lose you, to lose you afterward.

I want to have you very close,
See myself in your eyes, see you next to me.
Think that maybe tomorrow
I'll be far, far away from you.

Kiss me, kiss me a lot,
As if tonight was the last time.
Kiss me, kiss me a lot,
I fear to lose you, to lose you afterward.

LYRICS (Spanish)
Bésame, bésame mucho,
Como si fuera esta noche la última vez.
Bésame, bésame mucho,
Que tengo miedo a perderte, perderte después.

Quiero tenerte muy cerca,
Mirarme en tus ojos, verte junto a mí.
Piensa que tal vez mañana
Yo ya estaré lejos, muy lejos de tí.

Bésame, bésame mucho,
Como si fuera esta noche la última vez.
Bésame, bésame mucho,
Que tengo miedo a perderte, perderte después.

I have never heard this performance before. I have to say she is one of the very best female vocalists I have ever heard,this song goes over the top for me. She sang this song as it was meant to be portrayed, exquisitly sensual,can't get enough of it.
