Vuelta

Vuelta or la Vuelta may refer to:

Vuelta a España, a cycling race in Spain

Vuelta (magazine), published in Mexico by Octavio Paz

Vuelta (album), a record by Richard Shindell

Vuelta (film), an Argentine motion picture of 1997

Vuelta (music), the fourth stanza in certain genres of lyric poetry

Island life does have its charms
The constant sun, the steady breeze
Nothing ever happens here
Few are those who do not fall beneath the spell
Its language is an orphan branch
But one that I can understand
Its cadence is familiar
It shares the old declension from the continent
I came here with a package deal
Everything all prearranged
Three nights at the Grand Hotel
Where all the rooms have ocean views
By latitude and longitude
Mariners will not arrive
Its coordinates are plotted
By its relative position to the rising sea
The lucky few who call it home
Are prosperous and confident
And they manifest a certainty
That, come what may, things will not be otherwise
(Chorus)
But time is on the oceans side
The beaches shift, the cliffs erode
Though the engineers do what they can
Everyday another house just slides away
(Chorus)
