The Decemberists - Oh Valencia! Lyrics

Lyrics Oh Valencia! - 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'll shout out my love to the stars
So await for the stone on your window, your window
When first we laid eyes, I swore to no compromise
'Til I felt my caress on your skin
Well, how soon we were betrayed, your sister gave us away
And your father came all unhinged
So await for the stone on your window, your window
With your blood still warm on the ground
And I swear to the stars, I'll burn this whole city down
All I heard was the 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 await for the stone on your window, your window
With your blood still warm on the ground
And I'll burn this whole city down
With your blood gettin' cold on the ground
And I swear to the stars, I'll burn this whole city down.
