Malagueña Lyric

When I was walking to work today, this song dawned on me:

Ay, que de ti no tengo carta
ha pasado tanto tiempo

I know it is a Malagueña, but I cannot recall the rest of it or where I got it from. Because I wanted to sing it fully, I made up two different endings for it:

Ay, que de ti no tengo carta
ha pasado tanto tiempo
Ay, que de ti no tengo carta
mi corazón se levanta
aturdido en la noche
recordando tu dulce cara

And this other one:

Ay, que de ti no tengo carta
ha pasado tanto tiempo
Ay, que de ti no tengo carta
Y están muertas mis esperanzas
de volver yo a besar
los carrillos de tu cara

Can any one recall the real one?
