I saw her first in a beggar’s gameHer eyes were wild but herlaugh was tameThose people knew her byanother nameI knew that she’d be mineI knew that she’d be mine.She took me in on a winter’s nightThe air was brittle and themoon was brightMy heart was heavy but hertouch was lightDeep in the dance we wanderedDeep in my heart she fell.The candles glistened andthe water gleamedShe drew a bath and thewindows steamedShe looked like every womanever dreamedIn the heart of a lonely man.In the heart of a lonely man.She took my blindness and sheled me throughAs night retreated and thedaylight grewAnd with the first rays ofthe sun I knewLove had another captiveLove had another fool.The spell is broken and thechains fall freeFinally my heart has come home to meIt seems I’ve waited an eternity.
