When you haven't had a record out in two years and people come up to you on the street and in
luncheonettes and at gas stations and they say I can't tell you how much your music has meant to me
I mean that's real I mean they really say that to me that I mean can you imagine the feeling that
you get to know that you did something that you dug and other people dug it so much that even
though they haven't heard from you in two years they still remember it they still enjoy it it
brought them something and it's only since I really left the group that I realized what a
almost a fixture the mamas and papas are I used to say was you know when I until I started going
out on the road on my own I used to say that's part of the past the mamas and papas but that's
not true um I listen to the record sometimes and I just electrifies me
there is a rose in spanish
la la la la la la la la
it is a special one it's never seen the sun
it only comes out when the moon is on the run and all the stars are gleaming
it's growing in the street right up through the concrete but soft and sweet and dreaming
there is a rose in spanish
is
with eyes as black as coal that look down in my soul
and start a fire there and then I lose control I have to bake your heart
la la la la la la la la
in my garden
so
it is a special one it's never seen the sun
it only comes out when the moon is on the run and all the stars are gleaming
la la la la la la la la
in my garden
a red rose up in spanish
there is a rose in spanish
