Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
God's work is planned
I stand here with a man
That talked to me so candidly
More than I'd choose
ย
My lips once rouged
I feel again the blues
Of longing, ever longing, to be confused
ย
He wrote me a letter
Saying he would love me better
Than my poor son's begetter
The ruse
ย
Spoke of love like hunger
He at once was younger
Younger, ever younger, in my hunger
For a muse
ย
Finest man that I've seen
Ever since my eyes have been
But his honesty did gleam me blind
ย
Keep those thoughts from sight
Follow me into the night
And you can call on me when you need the light
ย
You know what I need
Why won't you give it me?
Must I fall down at your feet and plead?
ย
Don't you be scared of me
I'm nothing but the beast
And I'll call on you when I need to feast
ย
