It was a hot night
the crowd was hangin in the neighborhood
everybody there was lookin so cool
everyone was feelin so good
now, mister puente
they said hed be here by ten-thirty
said he was comin back to his roots again
to finds some old friends
the night that Tito played
my life forever changed
I felt my heart and soul come alive
I felt it all
movin and swayin under the moon
prayin to the rhythm of a puente tune
the night that Tito played
nothin was ever the same
there was Romona
she came uptown from corona
right there on the stairway of the subway train
we danced real slow
she was heaven to know
she whispered secrets
the way she kissed me it was perfect
we held on in the shadows of the city lights
oh, it felt so right
the night that Tito played
my life forever changed
I felt my heart and soul come alive
I felt it all
movin and swayin under the moon
prayin to the rhythm of a puente tune
the night that Tito played
nothin was ever the same
the night that Tito played
my life forever changed
I felt my heart and soul come alive
I felt it all
movin and swayin under the moon
prayin to the rhythm of a puente tune
the night that Tito played
nothin would ever be the same
