Then the bass comes in pulsing endless low A notes 5-x-x-x-x-x.

Lyrics:

Houses iced in whitewash guard a pale shoreline
Cornered by the cactus and the pine
Here I wander where sweet sage and strange herbs grow
Down a sunbaked crumpled stoney road

Dusty wheeels leaning rusting in the sun
Snuff brown walls where spanish lizards run (KC liked these critters!)
Here I'm shadowed by a dragon fig tree's fan
Ringed by ants and musing over man

I'll unwind my old strings
While the stars shine down
Won't climb any high thing
While the stars shine
Formetera Lady sing your song for me
Formetera Lady sweet lover

Lamplight glows on old guitarsthe travellers strum
Inscense children dance to an indian drum
Here Odysseus charm-ed for dark Cercie fell
Still her perfume lingers still her spell

Time's gray hand won't catch me
While the stars shine down
Untie and unlatch me
While the stars shine
Formentera Lady dance your dance for me
Formetera Lady, dark lover
