Abandoned Love
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
Now something's a-telling me I wear that ball and chain
My patron saint's 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-telling me I love ya still
I come back to town from the flaming moon
When 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 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
So call out for Saint John, the Evangelist
All my friends are drunk, they can be dismissed
My head tells me it's time to make a change
But my heart's a-telling me I love ya but you're strange
So step lightly, darling, 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
I've been deceived by the clown inside of me
I thought that he was righteous but he's vain
Now something's a-telling me I wear that ball and chain
My patron saint's 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-telling me I love ya still
I come back to town from the flaming moon
When 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 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
So call out for Saint John, the Evangelist
All my friends are drunk, they can be dismissed
My head tells me it's time to make a change
But my heart's a-telling me I love ya but you're strange
So step lightly, darling, 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
