Waterboys "The Charlatans Lament" |
At long weary last This game is over The sins of our past Fled from my shoulder The sleep that I need Is all I ask In thought and in deed I have burnt the mask Here I am Here I am Enchantment is broken I merged with the crowd Oaths have been spoken Inside and out loud Emerging from under Motions of God In tears and in wonder I ventured abroad Here I am Here I am Can you walk a smithereen Can you walk a smithereen Closer to me Could you love a thimbleful Could you love a thimbleful Harder for me Encountered a [Incomprehensible] hag Blood on the snow She said, "I've a burden to drag And leagues to go" I left her down by the seaside In someone's hall By dawn's empty light I cried To no one at all Here I am Here I am Can you walk a smithereen Can you walk a smithereen Closer to me Could you love a thimbleful Could you love a thimbleful Harder for me I swing between Tears and wonder I swing between Tears and wonder I swing between Tears and wonder I swing between Tears and wonder Tears and wonder Can you walk a smithereen Can you walk a smithereen Closer to me Could you love a thimbleful Could you love a thimbleful Harder for me Harder for me Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
