The Spanish Archer Lyrics


Well there must have been a reason

for the smile that you had upon your face last night

Are you the cat that got the cream

Did you lick your lips did you close your eyes

Can you imagine how it feels

It's so hard to reveal

Oh I can't get through and I'm falling

I'm getting out, I'm losing ground

The Spanish archer's gonna bring you down..

is there someone somewhere waiting in the wings

to take my place

Let's not drag it out like a Cagney death scene

In this season of change it's not hard to explain

Like the leaves on the trees I'm falling

And as you turn, don't look away

The Spanish archer's gonna make you pay..

Do you remember when the sky was blue

we used to talk for miles

And now we drive along in this thundering silence

It's such an obvious lie with that easy smile of yours

I'm letting go and I'm falling

I'm getting out, losing ground

The Spanish archer's gonna bring you down..

Well is there something I can say as we stumble to the edge have we gone too far

Why don't we call it a day before we call it a nightmare darlin'

If we made a mistake then all that it takes to be free

Is the wave of a hand and you're falling

And as you turn, don't look away

The Spanish archer's gonna make you pay..
