Spanish Dancer

Oh mama, there's this Spanish dancer Whose steps I follow when 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 arms emptied and all my treasures lost Still like that Spanish dancer I Throw my roses down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers them in Oh mama, the bridges were burning Over a river black and cold But I walked, when love commanded me Up to the edges of his soul But I'm still frightened of that dark divide Oh, will I gain entrance, or be denied? Still like that Spanish dancer I Throw my roses down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers them in Oh mama, when you were a young girl Did you ever love a man so much As if he were some fantastic jewel that You should never be worthy of But all those illusions strip and fall He is just a man after all Just like that Spanish dancer I Throw my roses down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers them in Just like that Spanish dancer I Throw my rose down for him Across these beds of darkness he Opens his arms and gathers them in Just like that Spanish dancer I Just like that Spanish dancer I Just like that Spanish dancer I Just like that Spanish dancer I Just like that Spanish dancer I Just like that Spanish dancer I
