[00:00.230]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
