Spanish Eyes

Spanish Eyes
 written by Madonna and Patrick Leonard
 -----------------------------------------------
 I know for sure his heart is here with me
Though I wish him back, I know he cannot see
My hands trembling, I know he hears me sing

Chorus:

 I light this candle and watch it throw
 Tears on my pillow
And if there is a Christ, he'll come tonight
To pray for Spanish eyes
 And if I have nothing left to show
 Tears on my pillow
What kind of life is this if God exists
 Then help me pray for Spanish eyes

 He had to fight like all the rest
 In the barrio all the streets are paved with fear
 I don't understand; at least he was a man

(chorus)

 Intermediate:

 How many lives will they have to take?
How much heartache?
 How many suns will they have to burn?
Spanish eyes
 When will they ever learn?

You were not the Maravilla in our minds
We were proud to fight but we cannot win this blind
Stand your guns against the wall
 Who's next in line to fall

(chorus)

 (Spoken:)
Tus lagrimas de tristeza
 No me dejan olvidarte
 Your tears of sadness
 Will not let me forget you
