iberian peninsula
city's surrounded, surrender
catholic cathedral's now a mosque
there is no valor here no more
this is not the spain that i remember
oh valencia
franciscan mission by the bay
house on fair oaks down memory lane
now its a cafe or a store
rose’s apartment is no more
this is not the street that i remember
on valencia
she used to tune in to the radio
listening to malo on KSOL
she got forced out of her old barrio
hey mrs. diaz now it's time to go (she can't stay)
remember when this place used to quake
the youth was shaking up in '68 (used to shake)

NO ECHO
02:14
|

she is a pearl thats isolated
in a shell that's well protected
seeking help from padres she pays
hiding from reality
who would know without me saying so?
is there no echo?
am i the one to tell her story?
tells me that she's a fancy lady
how do you want to be remembered?
paint a picture of her face
who would know without me saying so?
is it worth to know there's no echo?
is there no echo?

dulcinea
far away
not only in distance
but time
she is fiction
or religion
or just a girl
dulcinea
her hair
is the most fairest of all
mothers can't make
hair quite as straight
or daughters skin
quite as white
dulcinea - you don't exist
dulcinea - you're just a name
dulcinea - i still believe
dulcinea - i am a fool
dulcinea - you are a dream
dulcinea - can you hear me?

gold cross
that your grandmother used

there is a ghost in the room
güera
can't speak
but she still understands
