CRUELTY Track 3
Listen
She goes ‘round with her head held high
She goes ‘round thinking nothing’s wrong
I go ‘round with a moistened eye
I’ve been waiting so long for
Amelía
She gave birth to my second child
She gave birth to the one who lived
He don’t know where he got his smile
It was all she could give,
My Amelía
She came back for a spell last year
She came home, and the sunlight shown
We held hands and she seemed sincere
Still she left me alone again
I’ll be dead before Spring returns
I’ve met mercy and felt her grip
She’ll extinguish this heart that burns
And scrape that name from my lips
