Viking Heart

歌詞

Can you see who it might be? Tell old man to ring the bell Climb the steps up from the sea Strange and dark and very tall Can you see who it might be? Visitors - they are so few Head so proud but curls so free Looks like someone I once knew David - of the Viking heart Glitter of the sea It couldn't It wouldn't It daren't be The men they see him up the coast At the drinking house of Morley Arms Hails the sea with every toast and he hails the ladies with his charms All the ladies he does love Each day I saw his bosom swell He's not like me - I love but one And I love that one and I know him well Ah - but all the love In the world was not enough So I couldn't I wouldn't I daren't say no David - how you made me feel Every crack in every wall Climb above the traps of man Shout above the sirens call But now the siren's all you hear Shamed and dizzy you can't stop All the things we used to fear Are you spinning - little top? The strangeness of it all Is you know yourself so well But you couldn't You wouldn't You daren't say no Signs of you - they disappeared Poems and candles - I don't need Flowers that you brought to me Fell into a book I never read I cut my hair off like a man Too much trouble and what's more It was tarnished by your hand Gone my hair...into a drawer I said - should you leave? and you - you just agreed so we couldn't we wouldn't we daren't say no now I have been a woman true taking all that life does send I thought I could love just you but the heart does sway and the body does bend tales of you sometimes they come I smile and nod quite naturally my thoughts so rarely to you run I watch the glitter of the sea ***** can you see who it might be? tell old man to ring the bell climb the steps up from the sea I cannot see - I know him well David of the Viking heart glitter of the sea it couldn't it wouldn't it daren't be
