Lyrics
[Verse] Beneath the moon The olive stands Roots deep in blood Roots deep in sand The winds whisper "What do you know?" Branches weep where the rivers don’t flow [Chorus] Ay Ay Ay The olive tree cries Its tears are shadows Under blackened skies Ay Ay Ay Can you hear its plea? A lament of silence For eternity [Verse 2] I walked the path where shadows play Dust in my shoes Hearts in decay A songless bird on a barren bough Who stole the sun? Who answers now? [Prechorus] Hands clap loud The rhythm is pain Echoes fall like Andalusian rain [Chorus] Ay Ay Ay The olive tree cries Its tears are shadows Under blackened skies Ay Ay Ay Can you hear its plea? A lament of silence For eternity [Bridge] The fields once gold Now burn and fade The ghosts of harvest In ashes laid Each rasgueado strikes the soul Each hand clap calls what the earth once stole
