Well there must have been a reason
for the smile that you had upon your face last night
Are you the cat that got the cream
Did you lick your lips did you roll your eyes?
Can you imagine how it feels, it's so hard to reveal
Oh I can't get through and I'm falling
I'm getting out, I'm losing ground
The Spanish archer's gonna bring you down
Is there someone somewhere waiting in the wings to take my place?
Let's not drag it out like a Cagney death scene
In this season of change it's not hard to explain
Like the leaves on the trees I'm falling
And as you turn, don't look away
The Spanish archer's gonna make you pay
Do you remember when the sky was blue?
we used to talk for miles
And now we drive along in this thundering silence
It's such an obvious lie with that easy smile of yours
I'm letting go and I'm falling
I'm getting out, losing ground
The Spanish archer's gonna bring you down
Well is there something I can say as we stumble to the edge
have we gone too far? Why don't we call it a day
before we call it a nightmare darlin'?
If we made a mistake then all that it takes to be free
Is the wave of a hand and you're falling
And as you turn, don't look away
The Spanish archer's gonna make you pay
