Jonatha Brooke - Charming Lyrics
If it was any other year, or any other lifeBut this one's mine to carry on now, yes it's mine to carry on now'Cause I will always disappoint you, is it vengeance or your pride?'Til you lose me like that trinket on your braceletCharming, charmingIn the dream it's all a test, that I face by myselfLose the briefcase, lie at the airport, swallow the inky codeWe'll all answer in the end in our temporary tongue,But for now don't say anything, don't say anythingCharming, charming'Cause there, at the garden verge, I will pull you up in hope againNo more second thought will crowd you out of your desireTo be loved, not touched, to be blameless and ecstatic againThis is all there is, no knowledge is too much to bear in the endAnd I want this more than anything, and I want the damned red shoesAnd I want to lead Dorothy back homeHere today, here tommorrow, here's the lay of the landHere's my heart, here's my sorrow, I surrenderCharming, charmingCharming, charming'Cause there, at the garden verge, I will pull you up in hope againNo more second thought will crowd you out of your desireTo be loved, not touched, to be blameless and ecstatic againThis is all there is, no knowledge is too much to bear in the end
