"The Last Conquistador" lyrics
"The Last Conquistador"
I am the last conquistador
I am well meaning and intentions are earnest
I am the first to document
My route is new an my spirit enlightened
I kept hold for your letters
But maybe it would be better if they burn
Blueberries and dreams
Burst at the seams
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me
Blueberries and dreams
Hollowed and squeezed
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me
Stepped into darkness only stars left to guide me
Still I'm the last conquistador
I keep on going
Though the going ain't easy
And now my mind's in farrago
All jumbled up, in the promise of empire
I'm still searching for Beulah
And one day I will hold her in my arms
Blueberries and dreams
Burst at the seams
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me
Blueberries and dreams
Hollowed and squeezed
I'm so delirious, I'm oblivious to previous
Hallucinations of a fool, that deceived us
A combination of disease and confusion
My whole life's work, was just an illusion
Blueberries and dreams
Burst at the seams
My route was clear but a cloud fell upon me
Blueberries and dreams
Hollowed and squeezed
A combination of disease and confusion
My whole life's work, was just an illusion
Blue

The Charlatans - "Talking In Tones" I never liked the fact
And I don't like to moan
I thought we had a pact
Talking in tones

I'll start filling in the gaps
Talking in tones, talking...
The Fall - "Victoria" It was bad, called obscene
And the rich were so mean
Stately homes for the Lords
Golden lawns, village green
Victoria was my queen

Anna Calvi - "Eliza" The lonely won't hold me for good
Peaceful is gleaming she stood
To see her, to be her, to change
As if like a kiss we're the same
So hold me up, hold me up
If only I could be you
Eliza

Gaz Coombes - "Buffalo" Buffalo, buffalo
Open up, take me home
I'm an acrobat on the wire
I'm a call in the night
A giant leap into the dark
I wish I could jump to the start
Buffalo, buffalo
Open up, take me home
