16 – My Spanish Dancer
And a witch always seeks one who can master her sorcery. And help her live safely as a witch. Like I did for you. All these years… My beautiful Strega de Luna
My Spanish Dancer, the Bella Donna of Forbidden Paradise
Left the Shadows Of Paris, followed me East Of Suez
She said she was to become my Woman Of The World
Up in the honey-moon suite of Hotel Imperial
She gave her Flower Of The Night to taste and drink
Ever The Charmer, Good And Naughty she behaved
Like a Woman On Trial and I coaxed out of her
Her Loves Of An Actress and her Hollywood sex-yearning
She pretended she was The Woman From Moscow
Proclaimed that we would hence forth always have our Secret Hour
Even if we had to wear The Crown Of Lies
Or crawl through Barbed Wire
At the end of our tryst we were Three Sinners
She, me and our Dream, flourishing against all probability
Like a Lily Of The Dust
In a tryst that has never ended, has been sinned for to be kept secret.
And will only die with the passing of we two
