Spanish Doll
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This place feels so unfamiliar
And yet I know it well
I think I used to belong here
But the only way I can tell
Is that I miss you still
And I cannot find you here
You left me tattered and torn
Just like that Spanish doll
(Sweet Spanish sweet Spanish doll)
I went down to the alley way
(Sierra la Bonita)
And found that you were gone
Si nunca te fueras (if you never left)
You left no word no message
I still don't know exactly what went wrong
Lagrima (tear)
But now no matter where I go
I always seem to return
Buscame (look for me me)
To where you left me tattered and torn
Estoy rompida mi muneca (I am broken my sweet doll)
Just like that sweet Spanish doll
(Sweet Spanish sweet Spanish... Doll)
A memory guilded in red and gold
De oro (of gold)
Beauty guarded and never sold
Cuidame (protect me)
I keep it with me wherever I go
And I love you still
Recuerdame (remember me)
No matter how a story will unfold
You know I always will
Esta conmigo (it is with me)
Have part of you here
In this souvenir
This sweet Spanish doll
A stranger in this world without you
Is all that I can ever be
All I know that's pure and clear
You left it with me here
In this souvenir
This sweet Spanish doll
Father
We hear of a lovely daughter, shot down in her mistaken flight, unaware yet
How her life will be affected by this experience
Daughter
Why is it a house of leaves?
