lyrics

he only spoke spanish
with turquoise eyes
he whispered the rhythm and
i was hypnotized
but with the lilacs in bloom
he’s changing his tune
i could sing you a song
about a woman named true
she had so many children
she didn’t know what to do
her side of the story
is shadowed in blue
by the light of the silvery moon
am i wasting my time
like my time is wasting me?
does the mountain remember
the name of the sea?
am i only a stranger
with something to steal?
everyone is a slave
but what do you feel?
sixteen tons and what do you get?
just one day older
and deeper in debt
and i’d like to pretend
like we never had met
but the door to my fate stands ajar
