The Killers Happy Birthday Guadalupe lyrics

Well, I woke up Christmas mornin' and what did I see?
I saw a lovely senorita lookin' back at me named Guadalupe
With big brown eyes, boy, what did you this time?

Made my excuses and a beeline for the bedroom door
She was beggin' and a-pleadin', screamin'
Por favor, mi cumpleanos
Stay with me, baby, it's cold outside

We are livin' in a difficult time
We've been walkin' down a difficult line
Put your feet up, baby, it's Christmas time
Cumpleanos feliz, happy birthday, Guadalupe

Oh, our time will come
Oh, we both hold on

She gave me coffee and tortillas to console my head
Prepared the slippers on my feet before she made our bed
And blew the candles from my favorite cake

And we kissed beneath the mistletoe
And I pulled her body close to mine
I had just one chance, I whispered
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 livin' in a difficult time
And we've been walkin' down a difficult line
But put your feet up, baby, it's Christmas time
Cumpleanos feliz, happy birthday, Guadalupe

Deck the halls with rosaries, wish upon a Christmas tree
Silent night please come to me
Bearin' gifts from my, my Mexican angel

At night I wake up cold and lonely, burstin' at the seams
She haunts the early mornin' hours of December dreams
My Guadalupe with big brown eyes, I wanna break this spell tonight

'Cause we are livin' in a difficult time
And we've been walkin' down a difficult line
But put your feet up, baby, it's Christmas time
Cumpleanos feliz, happy birthday, Guadalupe
