lyrics

And here in Spain I knew a Spaniard
Who wrapped their arms around their legs like a child
And their thoughts grew out of their head like flowers in spring
And from afar the bells would ring

My first day in Spain was spent skipping rocks along the beach
My second, learning languages they never thought to teach
The third we spent locked arm to arm
Riding towards a future we knew would bring us both harm

But winter's on the wing it sped towards us
We both thought it’d destroy us
The time we spent, the last respects we’d pay
And from afar I could hear them say

In Spain, the time can stop
In Spain the wounds can heal
In Spain it’s almost a perfect world
In Spain it’s almost real

We ran into the park
Past all of those warning lights
We were climbing over the gates
and you said, please don’t let me fall
And I didn’t know any better, it was minutes later,
Don't you remember, it was right when I saw you slip that I heard the call

In Spain, the time can stop
In Spain the wounds can heal
In Spain it’s almost a perfect world
In Spain it’s almost real

And the doubts rain away in the rain
Our clothes soaked, our bodies the stain
And every road I seem to take leads only one way back to Spain
Back to Spain
Back to Spain
Dont you remember

Jacob Shipley New York, New York

Jacob Shipley writes, sings, and tells stories about the moments in life we’d rather not repeat. Some of his music is sorrowful, some sardonic and humorous, but all of it comes from a deeply personal place that is easy to connect with because we’ve all been there. Listening to Jacob is like reminiscing with an old friend: not everything was easy, but at least we made it through. ... more
