If it was any other year, or any other life But this one's mine to carry on now, yes it's mine to carry on now 'Cause I will always disappoint you, is it vengeance or your pride? 'Til you lose me like that trinket on your bracelet Charming, charming In the dream it's all a test, that I face by myself Lose the briefcase, lie at the airport, swallow the inky code We'll all answer in the end in our temporary tongue, But for now don't say anything, don't say anything Charming, charming 'Cause there, at the garden verge, I will pull you up in hope again No more second thought will crowd you out of your desire To be loved, not touched, to be blameless and ecstatic again This is all there is, no knowledge is too much to bear in the end And I want this more than anything, and I want the damned red shoes And I want to lead Dorothy back home Here today, here tommorrow, here's the lay of the land Here's my heart, here's my sorrow, I surrender Charming, charming Charming, charming 'Cause there, at the garden verge, I will pull you up in hope again No more second thought will crowd you out of your desire To be loved, not touched, to be blameless and ecstatic again This is all there is, no knowledge is too much to bear in the end
