Marguerita Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who makes my heart beat like thunder?
Who makes my temperature rise?
Who makes me tremble with wonderful rapture
With one burning glance from her eyes

[Chorus]
Marguerita

[Verse 2]
Once I was free as a gypsy
A creature too wild to tame
Then suddenly I saw Marguerita
And I was caught like a moth in the flame

[Chorus]
Marguerita is her name
Marguerita

[Verse 3]
Her lips have made me her prisoner
A slave to her every command
She captivates me and intoxicates me
With one little touch of her hand

[Chorus]
Marguerita
Sweet Marguerita
Sweet, sweet Marguerita

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
