Spanish Nights

Intro: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Verse: 1 In the City of Angels tonight down off one of those freeways The breeze ain't movin' nothin', But the blue hotel light and the ladies on the corner swear they could make it right And he sits with his head in his hands She sits listening to the radio And things--they ain't worked out exactly as planned But then, Southern California ain't no place to make a stand... And she holds on--she holds on to St. Christopher And she shines on--and he heads for the light And they can't take away the memories of Spanish nights... Interlude: | | | | Verse: 2 She had been there forever and he had been 'somewhere along the way' They were passionate people these are desperate times Desperate measures call for passionate crimes So they stole all the love they could handle, living underneath the hotel law And you don't take prisoners when you live on the run And this town--it can finish anything you've begun... And she holds on--she holds on to St. Christopher And she shines on--and he heads for the light And they can't take away the memories of Spanish nights... Bridge: | | | | When you run with the dreamers (when you run with the dreamers) The going can get so rough (get so rough) And sooner or later you find out that dreams just ain't enough...(just ain't enough) Verse: 3 And they swore that each time was the last one You know, two hearts can only take so much... And you can't live in love songs but, oh, how they tried Alone in the darkness with the whispers and cries But then... In the City of the Angels tonight... down off one of those freeways the breeze ain't movin' nothin' but the blue hotel light... And she holds on--she holds on to St. Christopher And she shines on--and he heads for the light And they can't take away the memories of Spanish nights... | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Listen to her heartbeat... | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Listen to her heartbeat... | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Listen to her heartbeat...
