Spanish Rose [original stereo mix] Songtext
von Van Morrison

The wine beneath the bed
The things we′ve done and said
And all the memories that come glancing back to me
In my loneliness

You're standing in the breach
Beyond that stretch, but our love will reach
Unconsciousness that find me sometimes wondering

Where you′re at
Hmm, take me back again
Take me back one more time, Spanish rose

The way you pulled the gate
Behind you when you said, "It ain't too late
Come on and swing the town and have from tonight
And hoping you'd come through

And many others, too
And all the friends we used to have in days gone by
I′m wondering
If you′ll take me back again
Take me back one more time, Spanish rose


And when the lights went out
And no one was abandoning the country in full bloom
In the room we danced
And many hearts were torn

And when the word went around that everything was wrong
And just couldn't be put right
It tore me up, it tore me up

In slumber you did sleep
The window I did creep
And touch your raven hair and sing that song
Again to you

You did not even wince,
You thought I was the Prince
To come and take you from your misery

And lonely castle walls
Ah, take me back again
Take me back one more time, Spanish rose

Ah, ah, ah, ah
Mmm, mmm
Da da da da da da da
