Formentera Lady Lyrics - King Crimson

Houses iced in whitewash guard a pale shore-line 

Cornered by the cactus and the pine 

Here I wander where sweet sage and strange herbs grow 

Down a crumpled sun-baked stony road 

Dusty wheels leaning rusting in the sun 

Snuff brown walls where Spanish lizards run 

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 sun shine down 

Won't climb any high thing while the sun shine 

Formentera Lady, sing your song for me 

Formentera Lady, sun lover 

Lamplight glows on old guitars the travellers strum 

Incense children dance to an Indian drum 

Here Odysseus charmed for dark Circe fell 

Still her perfume lingers, still her spell

Time's grey 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 

Formentera Lady, dark lover
