Hernando's Hideaway

Hernando's Hideaway - Doris Day

Written by：Richard Adler/Jerry Ross

I know a dark secluded place

A place where no one knows your face

A glass of wine a fast embrace

It's called Hernandos Hideaway Ole

All you see are silhouettes

And all you hear are castanets

And no one cares how late it gets

Not at Hernandos Hideaway Ole

At the golden finger bowl or anyplace you go

You'll meet your uncle Max and everyone you know

But if you are sitting close and making love to me

You may take my heart you may take my soul but not my key

Just knock three times and whisper low

That you and I were sent by Joe

Then strike a match and you will know

You're in Hernandos Hideaway Ole

I know a dark secluded place

A place where no one knows your face

A glass of wine a fast embrace

It's called Hernandos Hideaway Ole

At the golden finger bowl or anyplace you go

You'll meet your uncle Max and everyone you know

But if you go to the spot that I am thinking of

You will be free to gaze at me and talk of love

Just knock three times and whisper low

That you and I were sent by Joe

Then strike and match and you will know

You're in Hernando's hideaway
