Spanish Rose

Van Morrison

   G
1. The wine beneath the bed,
   G
   The things we've done and said
   G                                               C
   And all the memories that come glancing back to me
   G
   In my loneliness
   G
   You're standing in the breach
   G
   Beyond that stretch, but our love will reach
   G                                      C
   Unconsciousness that find me sometimes wondering
   G
   Where you're at.
   D
   Hmm, take me back again,
   D                                   G
   Take me back one more time, Spanish rose.

2. The way you pulled the gate
   Behind you when you said, "It ain't too late,
   Come on, let's have a ball
   And swing the town tonight."
   And hoping you'd come through
   And many others, too,
   And all the friends we used to have in days gone by,
   I'm wondering
   If you'll take me back again,
   Take me back one more time, Spanish rose.

3. And when the lights went out
   And no one was abandoning the country in full bloom,
   In the room we danced
   And many hearts were torn
   And when the word went around that everything was wrong
   And couldn't be put right
   It tore me up, it tore me up.

4. The way you held a note
   The trembling in your throat,
   That just beginning of your wondrous smile.
   The rising of the water
   The winter winds of days gone by.
   I often ask myself and wonder why
   It's gone.
   Ohhh take me back again,
   You have to take me back again,
   Take me back one more time, Spanish Rose.
   
5. In slumber you did sleep,
   The window I did creep
   And touch your raven hair and sing that song
   Again to you.
   You did not even wince,
   You thought I was the Prince
   To come and take you from your misery
   And lonely castle walls.
   Ah, take me back again,
   Take me back one more time, Spanish rose.
