Salvador Amador
Seduced by Shadows: Salvador Amador's Tale
Lyrics
I gave up the love of a good faithful man
I chose to end a relationship with a faithful man.
My friends and relations don't know where I am
My whereabouts are unknown to friends and family.
abandoned my children, I'd do it once more
I abandoned my children, and I would do it again.
To be in the arms of Salvador Amador
I made these sacrifices to be with Salvador Amador.
Like the mane of some stallion his coal-black hair flew
Describing Salvador's hair as black as a stallion's mane.
Steel eyes in the shadows met my young eyes blue
Salvador had intense, steel-like eyes that met the singer's blue eyes in the shadows.
He spoke with an accent from some distant shore
Salvador spoke with an accent from a distant place.
I could not resist Salvador Amador
The singer couldn't resist Salvador Amador.
There was frost on the trees when we rode out of town
They left town during frosty weather.
And before the first snow had begun to come down
Before the first snowfall, the singer decided not to return home.
I'd sworn that I'd never go home anymore
The commitment to never return home was made.
I was worlds away with Salvador Amador
The singer felt far away from home with Salvador Amador.
Now regret is the wage - and reward that I reap
Regret is the consequence of the choices made.
When my love and my children appear in my sleep
In dreams, the singer confronts the presence of love and children.
The locket and wedding ring that I once wore
The singer sold the locket and wedding ring they once wore.
Have been sold away by Salvador Amador
Salvador Amador was involved in selling these possessions.
He was charming and handsome, but not what he seemed
Salvador appeared charming and handsome but turned out different.
Now in sorrow I listen to the rain and I dream
The singer now experiences sorrow, listening to rain and dreaming.
Of my warm feather bed while I'm lying here sore
The singer dreams of a warm feather bed while lying sore on the cold ground.
On the cold ground beside Salvador Amador
The singer is now beside Salvador Amador on the cold ground.
