Из альбома: Haunted
This place feels so unfamiliar
And yet I know it well
I think I used to belong here
But the only way I can tell
Is that I miss you still
And I cannot find you here
You left me tattered and torn
Just like that SWEET Spanish doll
(Sweet Spanish...sweet Spanish...) doll
I went down to the alley way
(Sierra la Bonita)
And found that you were gone
Spanish doll: si nunca tes fueres (if you had never
left)
You left no word no message
I still don't know
EXACTLY what went wrong
Spanish doll: la grima (tears)
But now no matter where I go
I always seem to return
Spanish doll: busca me (find me)
To where you left me tattered and torn
Spanish doll: you so rompido mi muneca (I am torn
my sweet doll)
Just like that sweet Spanish doll
(Sweet spanish...sweet Spanish doll)
A memory guilded in red and gold
Spanish doll: del oro (of gold also pain)
Beauty guarded and never sold
Spanish doll: cuida me (protect me)
I keep it with me wherever I go
And I love you still
Spanish doll: requerda me (remember me)
No matter how a story will unfold
You know I always will
Spanish doll: ESTAMPA (?) ME (? ME)
Have part of you here
In this souvenir
(Spanish doll)
[No "This sweet"]
A stranger in this world without you
Is all that I can ever be
All I know that's pure and clear
You left it with me here
In this souvenir
SPANISH... [fading]
SPANISH...
SPANISH...
SPANISH...
(...DOLL)
Father:
We hear of a lovely daughter, shot down in her
mistaken flight...
(SWEET SPANISH...SWEET...)
Father: ....unaware yet how her life will be
affected by this...experience.
[There's something else over "experience", but not sure what.]
(SWEET...SWEET...)
Daughter: Mommy how come you cry?
Father: WHILE WHAT WAS REALLY HAPPENING IN YEARS
OF HER CHILDHOOD...
(SWEET SPANISH...SWEET...)
Father: PERHAPS THAT'S WHERE THE REAL STORY IS--IN
HER FAMILY HOUSE.
Daughter: HOW COME IT'S A HOUSE OF LEAVES?
(SWEET SPANISH...SWEET SPANISH...)
Daughter: HOW COME IT'S A HOUSE OF LEAVES?
Spanish doll: REQUERDA ME
(Applause)
