Track 2/4 from our forthcoming EP, 'Love Nest'.
Recorded live at Royal Holloway Student Union during lockdown.

lyrics

I don't care where you've come from
All I know is all of my prayers have been answered
Now green grows my pastures
Cause my God believes in second chances
And he shone a light on
This one solitary patch of desert
And from the ground up
Grew the last shot that I had at redemption

Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
The one sign of life in a place where nothing else grows
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
She sucks in the light with the force of a black hole
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose

I'd been walking for so long
I spent days and nights in the desert
With the good book under her arm
She unlocked the doors to the house built by heaven
And I was so sure
That I could bathe in her sunlight forever
And when the time comes
We could grow a little closer together
I reach out and touch her arm
I guess she's shy because she pulls away
Now I'm picking thorns out my palm
It's in my blood my debt will be paid

Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
The one sign of life in a place where nothing else grows
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
She sucks in the light with the force of a black hole
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
My Spanish rose

Let me tend to your garden let me earn my keep
Let me repay you for the kindness
You showed when I was in need
Let me tend to your garden
I don't need a fee
Just come and move your body
A little closer to me
Let me tend to your garden
In the Spanish heat
You can lay there on the mattress
You don't have to speak
Let me tend to your garden
Oh my will is weak
I've been dreaming about your body baby
And I can't sleep

Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
The one sign of life in a place where nothing else grows
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
She sucks in the light with the force of a black hole
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
Ah there she stood my Spanish rose
