Winter in Andalucia - Lyrics
Andalucian winter ( or memories to take away ) Andy Roberts 10/4/2002

G A D G A Down the coast from Alicante, in some winter fishing port We watch the working boats come in and G A D G A D see what they have caught. just to see what they have caught --- But the coast is not so special here, we turn and face inland and head towards the mountains, a simple change of plan A simple change of plan --- And the silence at the mountain top, it takes you by surprise with the scent of wild thyme and a feast for city eyes it's all a feast for city eyes
C Am C Am C B7 G A D
- Beware fallen rocks - keep your vehicle doors locked - and our cabin is well stocked
--- In the evenings we go drinking, and they feed us both of course For every glass of wine a plate of seafood, cheese or pork ( or olives, ham and pork ) That's how they do it inUgijar, with the orange trees in the street Next to the desert mountain range, far from the city beat --- Then it's christmas time in Ronda , but without any of that fuss The sunshine in the gorges, is good enough for us. That's good enough for us. --- But this time of year can be testing, and the bridge across is so high One day there'd been a leaper, we saw the rescue team go by, we saw the clean-up team go by.
- Beware falling rocks - keep your vehicle locked - and our cabin's so well stocked
--- So it's on down to Tarifa, and that's the very end of two oceans and two continents, we'll return some day my friend We shall return some day my friend --- We couldn't miss those southern cities, once ruled from the East, but we're getting kind of tired now, beware the savage beast, oh the savage beast --- With alcohol and menopause, that killer combination, traipsing through the streets at night, disorientation. disorient disorient disorientation --- It's an open changing roadway back, and now we've found our pace Just to wonder at the landscapes, and that strange cave dwelling race --- who made those ancient paintings, of the hunters and the fish Who dug their homes in the hillside, and then put up a satellite dish, they put up a satellite dish --- So that was winter in Andalucia, and it must have been one of the best, of memories to take away and keep with all the rest, and keep with all the rest.
