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 Showed me 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 her 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
