Formentera Lady
Houses iced in whitewash guard a pale shore-line
Cornered by the cactus and the pine.
Here I wander where sweet sage and strange herbs grow
Down a sun-baked crumpled stony road.
Dusty wheels leaning rusting in the sun;
Snuff brown walls where spanish lizards run.
Here Im shadowed by a dragon fig trees fan
Ringed by ants and musing over man.
Ill unwind my old strings while the sun shine down
Wont climb any high thing while the sun shine.
Formentera lady sing your song for me
Formentera lady sweet lover.
Lamplights glows on old guitars the travellers strum;
Insence children dance to an indian drum.
Here odysseus charmed for dark circe fell,
Still her perfume lingers still her spell.
Times grey hand wont catch me while the sun shine down
Untie and unlatch me while the stars shine.
Formentera lady dance your dance for me
Formentera lady dark lover.
