Spanish Dancer -Emmylou Harris |
| [00:00.990] |
Oh mama there's this Spanish dancer |
| [00:05.370] |
Whose steps I follow when he comes near |
| [00:10.129] |
The red dress of temptation |
| [00:14.419] |
Over a long black slip of fear |
| [00:19.239] |
Will I fall beneath the shadow |
| [00:21.299] |
Of some broken cross |
| [00:23.698] |
My arms emptied and all my treasures lost |
| [00:33.377] |
Still like that Spanish dancer |
| [00:38.126] |
I throw my roses down for him |
| [00:42.656] |
Across these beds of darkness |
| [00:46.765] |
He opens his arms and gathers them in |
| [00:54.745] |
Oh mama the bridges were burning |
| [00:59.85] |
Over a river black and cold |
| [01:03.885] |
But I walked when love commanded me |
| [01:08.125] |
Up to the edges of his soul |
| [01:12.945] |
But I'm still frightened of that dark divide |
| [01:17.864] |
Will I gain entrance or be denied |
| [01:27.64] |
Still like that Spanish dancer |
| [01:30.24] |
I throw my roses down for him |
| [01:36.524] |
Across these beds of darkness |
| [01:40.314] |
He opens his arms and gathers them in |
| [02:11.76] |
Oh mama when you were a young girl |
| [02:15.586] |
Did you ever love a man so much |
| [02:20.66] |
As if he were some fantastic jewel |
| [02:24.656] |
That you should never be worthy of |
| [02:29.496] |
But all those illusions strip and fall |
| [02:34.86] |
And he is just a man after all |
| [02:43.406] |
And just like that Spanish dancer |
| [02:48.175] |
I throw my roses down for him |
| [02:52.625] |
Across these beds of darkness |
| [02:56.645] |
He opens his arms and gathers them in |
| [03:03.64] |
Just like that Spanish dancer |
| [03:12.73] |
Just like that Spanish dancer |
| [03:21.152] |
Just like that Spanish dancer |
| [03:28.32] |
I throw my rose down for him |
