Artist/Band: Ray Brown
Lyrics for Song: It Happened In Monterey
Lyrics for Album: With All Star Big Band [2006]



In my imagination, I'm finding consolation


Somewhere along the Rio Grande


Sadly I'm reminiscing, madly again I'm kissing


Someone along the Rio Grande





It happened in Monterey, a long time ago


I met her in Monterey, in old Mexico


Stars and steel guitars


And luscious lips, as red as wine


Broke somebody's heart


And I'm afraid that it was mine


It happened in Monterey


Without thinking twice


I left her and threw away the key to paradise


My indiscreet heart, longs for the sweetheart


That I left in old Monterey





Making believe I'm merry


In ev'ry glass of sherry


I see the sparkle of her eye


And when I hear the cello


Tender and sweet and mellow


I hear the music of her sigh





It happened in Monterey, a long time ago


I met her in Monterey, in old Mexico


Stars and steel guitars


And luscious lips, as red as wine


Broke somebody's heart


And I'm afraid that it was mine


It happened in Monterey


Without thinking twice


I left her and threw away the key to paradise


My indiscreet heart, longs for the sweetheart
