Don Quixote (Coldplay’s New Song)

Update: Originally referred to as “Don Quixote”, the song is apparently called “Spanish Rain“

Coldplay debuted a new song last night in Buenos Aires called Don Quixote:

The folks over at Coldplaying.com have been trying to figure out the lyrics. Here’s what the words MIGHT be:

So we left La Mancha
Headed out for higher plains
Me and Sancho Panza

Looking for adventure
Rosinante at the reins
To the windmill’s answer

You’ll never be lonely
You’ll never be lonely ever again
You’ll never be lonely
You’ll never be lonely again

I heard you never get wet in Spanish Rain!

So they sent for a doctor
For examining my brain
Finished. Not too clearer

When the world, when the world just seems a little bit too cruel
Gonna leave it better
Make one better

So tell that princess
Tell that princess right down that train
Tell that princess
She’ll never be lonely again
I heard you never get wet in Spanish Rain!
I heard you never get wet in Spanish Rain!

Ole, etc.

I bet you never get wet in Spanish rain.

What do you think? Like the song? Are we going to hear it on the next album? Do you prefer “Don Quixote” or “Spanish Rain” as the title?

Update (3/22/10)
Lyrics to this song are tricky to pin down because Chris Martin seemed to change them a little bit with every performance. Based on a video from their Rio de Janeiro concert, the third and fourth verses are different:

So they called the doctor
Now they’re examining my brain
Saying I’m not too clever

But when the world just seems a little bit too cruel
Then I make one better
One where we’re always together
