Kirsty McGee - Sequins

Текст песни

Old Tom lies blind, tell me, what do you see?
Why d’you shake your locks when you look at me?
Oh love is blind, love is blind as the adder in the sand
You can’t see the diamond for the sequins in your hand
Old Tom, speak softly, tell me, what do I do?
If it weren’t for my eyes, I’d be blinded like you
For I cannot see further than this once-promised land
I can’t see the diamonds for the sequins in my hand
Oh, love unravels like a tumbling sea
Unravelling love, why do you carry me?
If I drown in your arms, make it easy for me
Let me die before I ever know you’re gone away from me
Old Tom lies blind, tell me what do you say?
Why d’you shake your head so sadly?
Why d’you turn and look away?
Oh love’s tides and her currents I will never understand
If I can’t see the diamonds for the sequins in my hand
Oh, hold me close like you used to do before
I have come a long way since you went from my door
And though I rage, oh how I need you
Won’t you take me by my hand
Won’t you help me find my way back home through this blinding sand?
Oh, love unravels like a tumbling sea
Unravelling love, why do you carry me?
Oh, I’ve seen how you sparkle when I let you float free
Won’t you take me once more to your breast before you’re gone from me?
Oh, you sparkle like a diamond when I let you float free
Won’t you take me once more to your breast before you’re gone from me?
