Spanish Sun
Lyrics by Jon Day
(from Exhibit B)
take these arms
take my life
make me warm
make it right
you call in home, to tell them it's late
you sip the drink, and start for the sake
you call in home, to tell them it's late
you lick the stick, and start for the sake
perhaps today, will leave what you were
oh give it all, to the man known as sir
you see, we were, the kings of the cow
we'll eat, we'll drink, we'll work it all out
in the spannsh sun
where there is no one
we'll be racing time
leave your watch behind
leave your watch behind
the heat, the breeze, the making of day
take the lane, because it's faster that way
the snow is late, it's hardest to cheat
the leaning grass, so leans by the tree
no love can get, an easier blow
to come as two, leave one as you go
the rolling reel, snoozes you to sleep
the hay, the barn, is going to make it go sweet
take these arms
take my life
make me warm
make it right
in the spanish sun
where there is no one
we'll be racing time
leave your watch behind
leave your watch behind
you see, oh no, oh me
oh my, my, my
you could have stayed
but your eyes had eyes
in the spanish sun
spare the light
where there is no one
spare me mine
in the spanish sun
left are arms
where there is no one
take all night
in the spanish sun
take these arms
where there is no one
take my life
we'll be racing time
make me warm
