Beware the people who tell you you’re beautiful Beauty more golden than Venus’s faded immortality Beware of their sighs Beware the people who whisper your voice is more liquid than silver And tempting as only the sirens could be They’re telling you lies Ask what they’re seeking and hope that today you are wise
Then turn, turn from their eyes They’re telling you lies Turn, turn from their eyes The tender soul cries Turn, turn from their eyes They’re thieves in disguise
Beware the people who listen to oracles Words can be shifted And truths can be twisted and strangely denied. Beware their advice Beware the people who dress you in finery Follow processionally Knowing that Death will be claiming his bride They’re telling you lies Ask what they’re seeking and hope that today you are wise.
Then turn, turn from their eyes They’re telling you lies Turn, turn from their eyes The tender soul cries Turn, turn from their eyes They’re thieves in disguise
Beware the women who come dressed in finery Dripping in flattery Planting the seed of the poison tree Beware their disguise Beware the women who tell you your love can be Only a sorrow And beauty’s tomorrow shines monstrously They’re telling you lies Watch them descending and hope that uncertainly dies
Why do you come here and question my joy? Why do you plant in my heart a disease? Why do you smile at those you destroy? Why do I listen to people like these? Why am I part of the plans they devise? They’re thieves in disguise.Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
