Lyrics
I sit beneath these foreign skies
A thousand faces before my eyes
The midnight sun, an ocean breeze
I see a vision dancing through the streets
I feel her rhythm in the air
She’s flowing through my veins
Into my heart where she will remain
Chorus:
Searching for my love in Samoiedo
She’s in my dreams, can’t get her outta my mind
Busco amor en Samoiedo
I’ll chase the dream until I make her mine
Wherever I go, she’s always there
Floating freely without a care
An elusive butterfly
Smiles at me with those alluring eyes
A fragrant memory fills the air
As the passion began to rise
She disappeared right before my eyes
(Chorus)
(Horn break)
Bridge:
Woke up in an empty bed
Realized the story was in head
Final Chorus:
I wanna go back to Samoiedo
To find the one that’s always on my mind
Quiero volver a Samoiedo
To chase my dream until the morning light
Until the morning light
Busco amor en Samoiedo
Quiero volver a Samoiedo
Busco amor en Samoiedo
Quiero volver a Samoiedo, yeah
