Spanish Horses Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ran a red light
Running lonely
Through Gaudi's soft confusion
Hey, hey my Barcelonian
Such a gentle jones
Running through my bones
Plaça Reial calls
It calls, it calls, it calls the night home

[Chorus]
And then her eyes
Like Spanish horses
Danced alive as language died
They danced like Spanish horses
As saddened skies
Descended on the night
We saw two ships set sail
And the lights danced on the water
They danced
They danced like Spanish horses

[Verse 2]
Trying to exorcise
The thought that daytime dies
Race, run and stumble
Fall into dark
Feel the fire, see the spark
Then you fall, then you fall
So free and humble
You tumble
[Chorus]
Into her eyes
Like Spanish horses
Dancing live as language dies
They dance like Spanish horses
As saddened skies
Descended on the night
We saw two ships set sail
And the lights danced on the water
They danced
They danced like Spanish horses

[Outro]
You're born from bloody revolution
You're lost to simplicity and small solutions
So you burn
When you're born
Then you burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
