Lyrics

In rapid flight
Perhaps towards Granada
A little swallow from its nest departs
Beyond the mountains she will find
Granada, land of romance
Of love and tender hearts

Chorus
If I could make dreams come true
I would be like a swallow
Searching the magic skies
Where my happiness lies
Dwelling in heavens blue
Always ready to follow
The one I love
Wherever she may go
