Perdido/Satin Doll
Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn, Ervin Drake, Harry Lenk, Johnny Mercer, Juan Tizol
Perdido,
I look for my heart, it's perdido!
I lost it way down in Toredo
The day the fiesta started.
Bolero,
I swayed as they played a Bolero,
I kissed 'neath a listening sombrero,
And that's when my heart departed.
High was the sun when I held him close;
Low was the moon when we said adios.
Perdido,
My heart ever since is perdido,
I know I must go to Torido,
To find what I lost perdido!
High was the sun when I held him close;
Low was the moon when we said adios.
Perdido,
Good luck perdido!
I lost perdido!
