Triste y preocupado estoy
Solitita cuando me voy
Alejándome de mi amor en lago azul
Trabajando sin descansar
Cuando pienso lo que es amar
Esperando mi amor escuchar en lago azul
Un día llegaré otra vez a ver mi lago azul
Con cariño ver a quien amo yo en mi lago azul
Ver las lanchas como mariposas
Otra vez al despertar
Cuando sale el sol mi corazón quiere cantar
Voy a ver mi amor otra vez
Y solita nunca seré
Tan contenta, yo estaré en lago azul
Trabajando sin descansar
Cuando pienso lo que es amar
Esperando mi amor escuchar en lago azul
Un día llegaré otra vez a ver mi lago azul
Con cariño ver a quien amo yo en mi lago azul
Ver las lanchas como mariposas
Otra vez al despertar
Cuando sale el sol mi corazón quiere cantar
Amorcito mío, a mi lado estás
Luna de plata, agua de cristal
Ya podré olvidar el cruel dolor que me hace llorar
Y contento estaré con mi amor mío en lago azul

Back in 1987, her decision to put out an album entirely in Spanish was considered a brave artistic choice. Today, it is unlikely a mainstream artist would get approval from the studio suits for such an endeavor, as it would trigger half the country and cause potential retribution against the studio by a former and perhaps future president's administration.  
There's an Italian version of this song, too (performed by Iva Zanicchi): "Con la voglia di te" ("With the wish of you")
Interesting, since I fell in love with Linda in high school, although she never knew it.
Very nice.  Her's has been a blessed life, hasn't it?  And to think, by the benefit of our era and technology that encradles us a large swarth of humanity has been able to come along for the ride, too.  Simply marvelous, ain't it?

I don't think I've ever heard her Spanish-language version of this.  Ever. 

The English version got a fair amount of airplay on FM radio.
