Mandolin

Oh, mandolin, oh, mandolin Waiting in the dark All centuries pa*sed down upon Your smooth Venetian skin Memories, oh, memories Lay stains upon your heart When lovers dance into the trance You weaved by candlelight Oh, I saw a sunrise like never before As mandolin played I cried for more Oh, mandolin, oh, mandolin Waiting in the dark Well, centuries pa*sed down upon Your smooth Venetian skin Incessant sound, incessant sound That stirs the young and pure Incestuous I kiss my hand And play the calling drum The lover cried into the silk Many years ago Your voice laid comfort down upon His European skin Oh, I saw a sunrise like never before As mandolin played I cried for more Oh, I saw a sunrise like never before As mandolin played I cried for more Oh, I saw a sunrise like never before As mandolin played, oh, I cried for more Mandolin, oh, mandolin Waiting in the dark Oh, centuries pa*sed down upon Your smooth Venetian skin
