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 he'd 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
