Lyrics for Sunday Afternoon 325 by Paul Simon:
| | | Artist: | Paul Simon |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | Sunday Afternoon 325 | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 66 | | | | Lyrics: | ESMERALDA
Salvador, the afternoon sunlight is folding
around us,
The dishes are
done,
The buildings here, tall as our mountains
Slice through the windows and cut off
the
sun.
On such days I find I am longing for Puerto
Rico
Though I never would
return 'til you are
free
But when I hear the Aguinaldo my heart's a
little
lighter
And we dance together Aurea and me
In my life I've been unlucky with
two
husbands
Gumersindo liked his rum and women friends
Then that hypocrite who beat
you and
preached about repentance
Has gone, and so another Sunday ends
And tomorrow
is another hard working Monday
I'm still hoping for the raise they
promised
me
There's a job as operator
I would not have to wait for
If I could
speak the language easily
But I tell Aurea:
The barrio's boundaries are our own
little
nation
Sometimes I hear you run upstairs
And I view my light with
resignation
Keep your bible near you
Time is an ocean of endless tears.
Mmm. .
