El Zócalo

[No lyrics]

. . .


Ever away from seeing more than life
The morning lies miles away from the night
No man ever could steal her heart
But With bright gold coins I’ll take my shot


And all it takes to fall
If you don’t walk, might as well crawl

(music)

All it takes to fall
What a quiet world after all
Of the things that you guessed will come
What a moment it was after all

. . .

My Wife

[No lyrics]

. . .


And so long, mistress sings
So long, I can't wait
To my love, wait one more

So long, mistress sings
So long, my fate has changed
It's been deranged

So long to these kite strings
So long, I've been saved before
I'm saved once more

I call upon my daring
I call upon, I can't taste anymore
I can't waste anymore

. . .

On A Bayonet

[No lyrics]

. . .


She wasn't ever obliged
To lift me a buckle or rise
And once her eyes covered with flies
The pain she no longer disguised
Windows that I'm terrorized in time
Never to ignite
There was once a time beside
It holds each one in light
'Til the market left dry
How long she's been by my side
But at last, the stable's retired

. . .


and we believed her then
and we believed her then
and we believed her then
and we believed her then

and now outside you see the waves in her eyes
and I, I won't mind what you decide to swear by
and now oustide, you see the waves in her eyes
and I, and I won't mind what you decide to swear by

and now outside I see your eyes meet the sky
and I, I don't mind what you decide to swear by
and now outside, I see your eyes meet the sky
and I, I won't lie, I kept you here tonight

and I believed her then
and I believed her then
and I believed her then
and I believed her then

. . .


You'll send your eyes your heart to me
Where would I be?
You'll send your odd your heart to me
Where would I be?

You're lost in the wild

. . .


What Falls
What Falls On The Side
Of My Soul
What Falls
What Falls On The Side
Of My Soul

. . .


I´ve been told
Ties
One child away
For Rome to spare
I can wait child
And write songs
By
Long beheaded
I am grateful
For
Romaing
And so I long for your econ
Either side
Era I
Rest tonight

Oh ho ho

Now
Autumn falls down
And I can hear the sound
Autumn falls down
Autumn goes down
And I till the ground

All I can...(?)
