Song lyrics

I want to weave a musical spell
That leaves you unwell
And thinking of me everyday
I want to play you a tune
That leaves you marooned
And troubled each time I'm away
Is there a melody -
That could lead you to me -
Like a lullabied child lead to sleep?
So for one moment in time,
You'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep

I want to write a simple song
That's so frequently sung
That you call me to have the thing banned
That jumps so endear
That whole nations cheer
And sigh when you take my hand
Is there a melody -
That could lead you to me -
Like a lullabied child lead to sleep?
So for one moment in time
You'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep

Cause I'm a gambler
That just wants to lose
And be allowed to leave
I'm a traveler -
With one last mile
My journey is complete
I'm like a swallow
That wants one long last look,
Before flying east
Last on my list -
And then I quit -
To kiss your lips and weep

I want to play a silver note
That fills you with hope
And tames you to feed from my hand
A turquoise chord
That invites you to soar
And fly... To a faraway land
A symphony
That gently leads
You to sit and be still with me
And grief doesn't frighten me
As its worst it delights me
'Cause I want to kiss you and weep

Cause I'm a gambler
That just wants to lose
And be allowed to leave
I'm a traveler -
With one last mile
My journey is complete
I'm like a swallow
That wants one long last look,
Before flying east
Last on my list -
And then I quit -
To kiss your lips and weep

Is there a melody -
That could lead you to me -
Like a lullabied child lead to sleep?
So for one moment in time,
You'd find that you're mine
And softly I'd kiss you and weep
