Everly Brothers - Abandoned Love Lyrics
I've been deceived by the clown inside of meI thought that he was right but he's afraidBut something's telling me, I wear the ball and chainMy patron saint is a-fighting with a ghostHe's always off somewhere when I need him mostThe Spanish moon is rising on the hillBut my heart is telling me I love you stillEverybody's wearing a disguiseTo hide what they've got left behind their eyesBut me, I can't cover what I amWherever the children go I'll follow themI march in the parade of libertyBut as long as I love you I'm not freeHow long must I suffer such abuseWon't you let me see your smile before I turn you looseI've given up the game, I've got to leave,The pot of gold is only make-believe.The treasure can't be found by men who searchWhose gods are dead and whose queens are in the churchWe sat in an empty theatre and we kissed,I asked you please to cross me off your listMy head tells me it's time to make a changeBut my heart is telling me I love you but you're strangeSo one more time at midnight, near the wallTake off your heavy make-up and your shawlWon't you come down from the throne of where you sitLet me feel your love one more time before I abandon itI come back to the town from the flaming moonI see you in the streets I begin to swoonI love to see you dress before the mirrorWon't you let me in your room one time, before I finally disappear
