    Erienda
    © Kenny Rankin

    Lovely Erienda
    She rises with the sun
    No matter how she struggles,
    her work is never done.

    She walks the long, cold and the lonely streets
    The tender, natural sweetness
    A new dress in the shop window
    A secret weakness

    Ah, lovely Erienda
    There should have been so much more
    Here life is Havana
    But at home there is more,
    Dark eyed, innocent Salvador, Salvador.

    Hmm . . .

    The lady of the manor
    Dresses and drives away
    Erienda rests her broom
    Then she begins to play . . .

    See her dancing with gowns
    Only seen by the mirror
    In the rapture of her fantasy
    Hear the silence of her tears.

    Oh, Erienda,
    There should have been so much more
    Feel life is Havana. . .
    But at home there is only your dark eyed innocent of Salvador . . .Salvador

    Lovely Erienda . . .

    Back to the wash and cleaning windows
    Work so very hard
    Erienda she dreams of kisses
    From the gardener in the yard

    Oh, Erienda,
    There should have been so much more
    Feel life is Havana. . .
    But at home there is no one . . .

    when i think there's nothing left, i think of love and all the time it buys . . . my beloved -- minnie driver
