Song language: English
I Came So Far for Beauty |
I came so far for beauty |
I left so much behind |
My patience and my family |
My masterpiece unsigned |
I thought I’d be rewarded |
For such a lonely choice |
And surely she would answer |
To such a very hopeless voice |
I practiced on my sainthood |
I gave to one and all |
But the rumours of my virtue |
They moved her not at all |
I changed my style to silver |
I changed my clothes to black |
And where I would surrender |
Ah now I would attack |
I stormed the old casino |
For the money and the flesh |
And I myself decided |
What was rotten and what was fresh |
And men to do my bidding |
And broken bones to teach |
The value of my pardon |
The shadow of my reach |
But no, I could not touch her |
With such a heavy hand |
Her star beyond my order |
Her nakedness unmanned |
I came so far for beauty |
I left so much behind |
My patience and my family |
My masterpiece unsigned |
