Lyrics Who Could Deny You - Tim Buckley

Who Could Deny You

I know you’re kind
You’ve been through the mill
Now you’re standing in line
Too proud to beg and too tired to cry
About the one that got away
Your first love
Oh, he taught you how to pay
And now you’re all alone
You’ve got your misery
You were not taught so well, sister
That’s why you ended up with me
Now that you’ve found me
Oh, darling please don’t tease me
All of my naked years
Are here in front of me
Come here darling, lay down by my side
Lovin' the way you do
Oh, woman won’t you tell me
Tell me who, tell me who can deny you
You love and you lose
You’re lost in the blue
Your turn again
You’ve paid your way
But it’s under your skin and it’ll never let you go
Under your skin so deep, it never really shows
You’re all alone but you’ve got your misery
The sea is raging honey, reaching for you and me
Now that you’ve found me
Oh, honey please, please don’t tease me
All of my naked years
Are here in front of me
Come here, lay down by my side
I’m lovin' the way you do
Oh, tell me, tell me please
Who, who can deny you
Oh, tell me, tell me please
Who, who can deny you
Oh, tell me, tell me please
Who, who can deny you
