oh Granada I see, from the land to the sea

like a bird in the sky I stare down on your view

oh Granada...are you slipping away?

oh Granada I feel that I'll never be free

and I'll never set my feet back down on your ground

oh Granada...you are slipping away

I must incinerate every word

...that spews from those pretty lips

I must incinerate...it's not the end of the line

it's the end of the world

oh Granada I see, through your eyes runs a gleam

but it's fading so fast I can hardly believe

that Granada...that you'll never be real

oh Granada you are just a vague ancient star

in the head of a man that will never go far

oh Granada...for a time you were real
