¡Happy Birthday Guadalupe! by The Killers

Well I woke up Christmas morning
And what did I see?
I saw a lovely señorita looking back at me
Named Guadalupe
With big brown eyes
Boy what did you do this time?
Made my excuses
And a beeline for the bedroom door
She was begging' and a-pleading, screaming
("Por favor, mi cumpleaños")
Stay with me
Baby it's cold outside
We are living' in a difficult time

We've been walking' down a difficult line

Put your feet up baby, it's Christmas time
(Cumpleaños feliz)
Happy Birthday Guadalupe
(Our time will come)
(Oh oh oh we both hold on)
She gave me coffee and tortillas
To console my head
Then laid the slippers on my feet
Before she made our bed
And blew the candles from her favourite cake
And we kissed beneath the mistletoe
I pulled her body close to mine
And I had just one chance
I whisper
"Baby will you marry me for just one dance?"
Infatuation, the things you say
I got scared and I left that night
'Cause we are living' in a difficult time
We've been walking down a difficult line
Put your feet up baby, it's Christmas time
(Cumpleaños feliz)
Happy Birthday Guadalupe
Deck the halls with rosaries
Wish upon a Christmas tree
Silent night please come to me
Bearing gifts from my...
My Mexican angel

At night I wake up cold and lonely
Busting at the seams
She haunts the early morning hours
Of December dreams
My Guadalupe, with big brown eyes
I wanna break the spell tonight

'Cause we are living' in a difficult time
We've been walking' down a difficult line
Put your feet up baby, it's Christmas time
(Cumpleaños feliz)
Happy Birthday Guadalupe

Happy Birthday Guadalupe...
