|
I met a woman down in Mexico |
|
Sweet as sugar with a heart made of stone |
|
We drank tequila by the light of the moon |
|
I didn't realize that she would be my ruin |
|
She said she knew about the voodoo ways |
|
Said she could love me till the end of her days |
|
She lit a candle and turned around |
|
And when she did my feet never touched the ground |
|
She tried to say she was the last of her kind |
|
She started to change I nearly lost my mind |
|
I realized she had put a spell on me |
|
Smelled the room; smelled just like a honeybee |
|
I looked around and my eyes grew wider then |
|
I realized I was inside her spider den |
|
Tried to run but I never had a chance |
|
She did her tarantula dance |
|
Oh you say its too fantastic, it cannot be true |
|
I say that it can happen, oh it can happen to you |
|
One minute you'll be thinking that everything's fine |
|
The next thing you know well you're there with your heart on the line |
|
There she goes |
|
There in the moonlight |
|
Under the stars |
|
Tarantula |
|
There she goes |
|
There in the moonlight |
|
Under the stars |
|
Tarantula |
|
Throughout the night I heard her call my name |
|
Me like a moth drawn to the flame |
|
Me like a spell in the magic ways |
|
Made a minute stretch into days |
|
And when I felt her lips close to mine |
|
I felt our bodies then our souls entwine |
|
I tried to run but I never had a chance |
|
She did her tarantula dance |
|
Oh you say its too fantastic, it cannot be true |
|
I say that it can happen, oh it can happen to you |
|
One minute you'll be thinking that everything's fine |
|
The next thing you know well you're there with your heart on the line |
|
There she goes |
|
There in the moonlight |
|
Under the stars |
|
Tarantula |
|
There she goes |
|
There in the moonlight |
|
Under the stars |
|
Tarantula |
|
When I awoke she had slipped away |
|
I haven't seen her since that day |
|
And now I search everywhere I go |
|
For that sweet young girl from Mexico I go |
|
Town to town and the story they tell |
|
About a girl breaking hearts with a magic spell |
|
Using potions and magic chants |
|
But I know it's just her tarantula dance |
|
Oh you say its too fantastic, it cannot be true |
|
I say that it can happen, oh it can happen to you |
|
One minute you'll be thinking that everything's fine |
|
The next thing you know well you're there with your heart on the line |
|
There she goes |
|
There in the moonlight |
|
Under the stars |
|
Tarantula |
|
There she goes |
|
There in the moonlight |
|
Under the stars |
