The Spanish from your lips
Tastes like tomatoes on the vine
Like a baby bird I’m pecking
I’m drinking down that line
You keep saying “No”
But it ain’t no word I know
Welcome to America, Pablo
You say your heart is roto
And your corazon is broke
By some girl in Guanajuato
Who couldn’t take a joke
You say no hay espacio
For an amor American
Still I’m gonna love you best I can
‘Cause the Spanish from your lips
Tastes like tomatoes on the vine
Like a baby bird I’m pecking
I’m drinking down that line
You keep saying “No”
But it ain’t no word I know
Welcome to America, Pablo
I keep my heart spoiled
Always taking just what I want
I know that nada it ain’t nada if it ain’t free
Free to work for or to toil for
Or to win over in song
I think you’re really something, Pablo, don’t you see?
The Spanish from your lips
Tastes like tomatoes on the vine
Like a baby bird I’m pecking
I’m drinking down that line
You keep saying “No”
But it ain’t no word I know
Welcome to America, Pablo
I left my reason ages ago
For a song you’ll never know
It’s floating down some rio
In Spain or Mexico
And wander it will where water it spills
You’ll find you and I’ll find me
But Pablo could it be you’ve been
Looking for me in ti?
The Spanish from your lips
Tastes like tomatoes on the vine
Like a baby bird I’m pecking
I’m drinking down that line
You keep saying “No”
But it ain’t no word I know
Welcome to America, Pablo
You know, it wasn't my favorite for a while, but for some reason my brain decided to listen to it on loop a few weeks ago and now I can't stop thinking about it.
I love the synths, the tone, the lyricism, even the music videos which I feel I should mention!!!
(also, should've been me reminds me a bit of abba which is an automatic bonus in my book) praisedrays
I’m so grateful this crossed my path. This album is so beautiful. All the clear technique and mastery and vision are kinda secondary to the fact that this album brought me calm and joy during one of the most difficult times in my life. Yeah, grateful. David McCullough
