Hugh Cornwell Cadiz Lyrics

Cadiz Lyrics

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
