Cleopatra Dreams On
Your window sweatsYour man he is asleepThe tower clock moans the appointments that you keepEnter the barAnd Cleopatra dreams onNow, your lover is drunkAnd he's asleep on the lawnYour boy is in the desert and he fondles a fawnGo to the bar!Cleopatra dreams onNow, the agents of graceHave been stealing your laceThey cheat in the race, then claim your faceThis is no placeFor Cleopatra dreaming onSo, you don't have to put me onI know you're alone in the dawnI'll wait outside while Cleopatra dreams onNow, there you go exploding your mind againAnd yes I understand all the trouble you've been inBut hey man! I'm your friendSongtexteSo, you don't have to put me onI know you're there in the dawnI wait outside and Cleopatra dreams onThe disciples of soulAnd the husbands of wooThey don't know exactly what to do with youThey tax your broken heartAnd they commision your bluesAnd I'm trying to understandWhat you needWhile you stand on the bar and wave flags at meStep out in the rainCleopatra dreams onSo, you don't have to put me onI know you're out there in the dawnI'll wait outside and Cleopatra dreams onCleopatra dreams onCleopatra dreams onCleopatra dreams onI heard her dreamingCleopatra dreams onI heard her dream Aus Songtexte Mania
