Colin Blunstone Andorra lyrics

The nearer we got to Andorra
With the sunset on the left
The more the mountains pointed
To the black clouds in the west

Hey, there's a darkness in the sky
That's not the night
Hey, there's a raincloud
It's shutting out the light

What do I tell you is always the same
When you run for the sun
You catch the rain

As soon as we reached Barcelona
A cold wind touched the beach
And the sun we'd left in London
Was way beyond our reach

Hey, I said darling
It seems a waste of time
Hey, all we do is sit

And drink our spanish wine

What do I tell you is always the same
When you run for the sun
You catch the rain

In all the tales of Granada
They tell of islams run
They lived beneath a morish lord
Beneath the morish sun

Oh how we yearned to turn
Our faces to that glare
When down from the mountains
Came the rain to soak our hair

What do I tell you is always the same
When you run for the sun
You catch the rain
