O Valencia! Lyrics

The Decemberists

You belong to the gang and you say you can't break away
But I'm here with my hands on my heart
And our families can't agree, I'm your brother's sworn enemy
But I shout out my love to the stars

So we'll wait for the stone on your window, your window
We'll wait by the car and we'll go, we'll go

When first we laid eyes, I swore to no compromise
'Till I found my caress on your skin
But how soon we were betrayed, your sister gave us away
And your father came all unhinged

So we'll wait for the stone on your window, your window
We'll wait by the car and we'll go, we'll go

But o, Valencia with your blood still warm on the ground
Valencia, and I swear to the stars I'll burn this whole city down, oh, oh, oh

All I heard was a shout of your brother calling me out
And you ran, like a fool, to my side
Well, the shot, it hit hard and your frame went limp in my arms
And an oath of love was your dying cry

So we'll wait for the stone on your window, your window
We'll wait by the car and we'll go, we'll go

But o, Valencia with your blood still warm on the ground
Valencia, and I'll burn this whole city down
Valencia, with your blood getting cold on the ground
Valencia, and I swear to the stars I'll burn this whole city down, oh, oh, oh
