Convalescing in Spain

Convalescing in Spain - The Judybats

Convalescing in Spain

Trying to purge this sickness

You started in me

At the outdoor cafes

Trying to cool this fever

Drink relief recovery

In the scratchy shade

Of a dusty almond tree

Boozing it up with friends I've made

Yeah we laugh till we cry

They don't know my mind

Is oceans away

The people really like me here

My spanish is getting better

But all I want to do is

Break away from them

And write you another letter

That I'll never send

I fold them into boats

Set them afloat in the

Neighborhood pool

The children love them till they

Sink and say ihagame uno mas

Esos son muy cool

Running on the beach

Over the rocky part

I can almost forget that

Forgetting is the hardest part

That letting go

Is only a state of mind

That love is impure

That love is blind blind blind blind da

I'm talkin' blinkers maam

Running on the beach

Over the rocky part

I can almost forget that

Forgetting is the hardest part

Convalescing in Spain

I've been keeping a diary

And I must be getting well

'Cause I write less of you

And more of me

Things like

Did we sleep through the best part

Did we cry through the worst part

Did we chinga through the good days

Did we get stuck with the end

Don't we cry when someone

Steals the show

Hate when it's someone we know

Perhaps this is the best part

Convalescing in Spain

Perhaps this is the best part
