Spanish Dancer

(Verse) Oh mama, there’s the Spanish dancer Who steps up, follow and he comes near The red dress of temptation over a long black slip of fear Will I fall beneath the shadow of some broken cross? My arm empty then all my treasures lost (Chorus) Still like that Spanish dancer I Throw my roses down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers in him (Verse) Oh mama, the bridges where burning Over a river of black and cold But I walked when love commanded me Up to the edges of his soul (Bridge) But I’m still frightened of that dirty light Will I gain entrance or be denied? (Chorus) Still like that Spanish dancer I Throw my roses down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers in him (Verse) Oh mama when you were younger Did you ever love a man so much? As if he was some fantastic jewel You should never be worried (Bridge) But all those illusions dipping full And he’s just a man after all (Chorus) Still like that Spanish dancer I Throw my roses down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers in him Just like that Spanish dancer I… Just like that Spanish dancer I… Just like that Spanish dancer I… Throw my roses down for him
