I can hear the turning of the key
I've been deceived by the clown
inside of me.
I thought that he was righteous but he's vain
Oh, something's a-telling me I
wear the ball and chain.
My patron saint is a-fighting with a ghost
He's always off
somewhere when I need him most.
The Spanish moon is rising on the hill
But my heart is
a-tellin' me I love ya still.
I come back to the town from the flaming moon
I see
you in the streets, I begin to swoon.
I love to see you dress before the mirror
Won't you
let me in your room one time 'fore I finally disappear?
Everybody's wearing a
disguise
To hide what they've got left behind their eyes.
But me, I can't cover what I
am
Wherever the children go I'll follow them.
I march in the parade of
liberty
But as long as I love you I'm not free.
How long must I suffer such
abuse
Won't you let me see you smile one time before I turn you loose?
I've given up
the game, I've got to leave,
The pot of gold is only make-believe.
The treasure can't be
found by men who search
Whose gods are dead and whose queens are in the church.
We
sat in an empty theater and we kissed,
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
My
head tells me it's time to make a change
But my heart is telling me I love ya but you're
strange.
One more time at midnight, near the wall
Take off your heavy make-up and
your shawl.
Won't you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
Let me feel your love
one more time before I abandon it | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
