Story behind the song
Inspired by Priscilla Hernandez and Tenerife and Pris checked over my Spanish! Ed added the music.
Lyrics
El verano ha pasado y las aves tambien Todas han volado hacia el sur Yo tengo nada que me detenga aqui Como ellas quiero vagar Por tanto vuelo a Tenerife Porque quiero ver Priscilla Vive alli en La Laguna Y ella es mi cantante favorita Aunque su canciones son nanas amargas Su musica conmove mi corazon. No hay ningún lugar como Tenerife Con los dragos y los lagartos Del pico niveo de la montaña A el calor tropikal de Orotava. Quiero ver las selvas magicas Y dar un paseo en las playas calientes O sentarme en algunos bares españolos Y beber barraquitos dulces Quiero ver las cuevas de los Guanches Y las piramides de Guimar Me quedé encantado de la belleza de Tenerife Y las canciones de Priscilla querida. English version: The summer has now gone and so have the birds, They have all flown south, I have nothing to keep me here and like them I want to wander, And fly to Tenerife, Because I want to see Priscilla, She lives there in La Laguna, And she is my favorite singer, Although she writes bitter lullabies, Her music touches my heart. There is nowhere like Tenerife, With the dragon trees and lizards, From the snowy mountain peak To the tropical heat of La Orotava. I want to see the magic forests and spend time on hot beaches, Or relax in some Spanish bars, And drink sweet barraquitos. I want to see the caves of the Guanches, And the pyramids of Guimar, I am enchanted by the beauty of Tenerife and the songs of sweet Priscilla.
