Salvador Sanchez Lyrics - Singles - Sun Kil Moon

Salvador Sanchez arrived and vanished 

Only twenty-three with so much speed 

Owning the highway 

Mexico City bred so many 

But none quite like him sweet warrior 

Pure magic matador 

Pancho Villa would never rest 

'Til 1925 he closed his eyes 

'Til Manilla stars would rise 

Gozo of the Philippines, choirs and angels sing 

Ukulele strings play for his legend 

Italy had a king 

How have they gone 

Fell by leather 

So alone 

Bound together 

Benny "kid" Paret came a good way 

Climbed to the grey sky to raise his hands 

Stopped by the better man 

Eyes of Los Rios cry for suns 

Lost on distant shores, unforeseen horrors 

Struck and delivered him 

How have they gone 

Fell by leather 

So alone 

Bound together 

Why have they gone 

Fell by leather 

So alone 

All bound together
