MIRANDA AND THE TEMPEST
from "The Fool" 2005
You’re a Goddess like the girl by the sea
Singing my name and tempting me
To row a little closer to the rocks
But my rowing boat does not contend with the waves that you’re making
Tell me who do you save when you [beg] me a [slave]
I cannot deny you
Even though I tried
I cannot survive you
Again you call me to die
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?
You’re twisted like a tree
That grows through the ground that I am
But I cannot contain the way
You’re spread through, sucking the life from me
Shaping what I could see
Oh, it is telling me
What I will never ever be
I cannot deny you
Even though I tried
I cannot survive you
Again you call me to die
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?
Won’t you please
Set me free
I cannot deny you
Even though I tried
I cannot survive you
Again you call me to die
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Trust you?
Can I…
Can I…
Can I…
Love you?
