Lyrics
King David, I ask you in a song
Did it feel wrong?
You were driven to cruelty
Blinded by Bathsheba's beauty
You know some things like that you can't explain
And this refrain
Is too short to try
And so with a sigh
Say the brilliantly colored sky
Is reflected in the eye
Of the sinister lover
Hey Ahab, what about you?
How did Jezebel get through?
No, you did not think
And now her dogs have your blood to drink
You know some things like that you can't explain
And this refrain
Is too short to try
And so with a sigh
Say the brilliantly colored sky
Is reflected in the eye
Of the sinister lover
I bring this story to you
Stranger, in a song
It didn't last long
She was confident and I was lost
She spoke with a rough voice
But her hands were soft
(Some things like that you can't explain)
It wasn't love
Stranger, I'm not certain
But with the last burden of this song
I'll say with a sigh
The brilliantly colored sky
Is reflected in the eye
Reflected in the eye
Reflected in the eye
Of the sinister lover
