Artist: hugh cornwell
Song: cadiz
She was a woman with a magnetic smile pointed at me like a compass at night
I can't imagine what the world would be like without her sunset to brighten up the sky
Walked down her streets and the cool shadows in which I lingered before bursting into light
Opened her door I was beckoned inside into a fairy tale I climbed up to her heights
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
I walk down her steps and the centuries echo my footfalls bouncing round the crypt
I hear the waves like the beat of her heart down by the shoreline past and present slips
Away Cadiz Falla she is
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Show me a reason give me a sign
We could be leaving all this behind
So if a songbird flies from the north down to the island he'll be holding her hand
And he'll be looking for the house that is still down by the shoreline and she'll understand
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Hola Cadiz Falla she is
Show me a reason give me a sign
We could be leaving all this behind
