I could leave you here, basking in the glow
I can see you running, but I can't let you go
So hold on, till I'm gone
(Chorus)
The dust, the wine, the blood
seething in the ground again
The matador's new love
longing to be found again
A telegram from you,
from the ocean to the rescue
Well I will not be bitter for things I'm never told,
and I'll only be jealous for what I can't control
So stand clear, my dear
(Chorus)
The dust, the wine, the blood
seething in the ground again
The matador's new love
longing to be found again
A telegram from you,
from the ocean to the rescue
I can see you there, it's painfully inprobable
that I could be your star
Float across the square, tanned and untouchable
the lonliest by far, the lonliest by far
(violins and cello)
(Chorus)
The dust, the wine, the blood
seething in the ground again
The matador's new love
longing to be found again
A telegram from you,
from the ocean to the rescue
A telegram from you,
from the ocean to the rescue
