Lyrics Loreena Mckennitt

Loreena Mckennitt

Spanish Guitars and Night Plazas

Falls, the light, by your side

And flows to a sea of lost dreams

The ocean opens its arms to lost souls

And toils the night, so it seems

And who can recall the lost faith there

The distant look in your eyes

Spanish guitars and night plazas

In a park you can hear lovers cry

Here where the children are singing

I kissed the sleep on your brow

Here where the children are weeping

I held you 'til your heart became mine

Somewhere deep in the midnight

Night birds sent out their calls

Somewhere far from the madness

Shadows of leaves touch the walls

They chant mid-dance with the heartbreak

Of those who cast on with their woes

Showed me to love in the darkness

Love, is it? It comes and it goes

Here where the children are singing

I kissed the sleep on your brow

Here where the children are laughing

I held you 'til your heart became mine

La la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la

Falls, the light, by your side

And flows to a sea of lost dreams

The ocean opens its arms to lost souls

And toils the night, so it seems

And who can recall the lost faith there

The distant look in your eyes

Spanish guitars and night plazas

In a park you can hear lovers cry

Here where the children are singing

I kissed the sleep on your brow

Here where the children are weeping

I held you 'til your heart became mine

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la la la la la la la la la la la

La la
