The spell is broken and the chains fall free
Those people knew her by another name
Deep in the dance we wandered, deep in my heart she fell
Her eyes were wild but her laugh was tame
It seems I've waited an eternity
Deep in the dance we wandered, deep in my heart she fell
The air was brittle and the moon was bright
As night retreated and the daylight grew
I knew that she'd be mine, I knew that she'd be mine
My heart was heavy but her touch was light
Love had another captive, love had another fool
The candles glistened and the water gleamed
Those people knew her by another name
I knew that she'd be mine, I knew that she'd be mine
She took me in on a winter's night
The air was brittle and the moon was bright
Finally my heart has come home to me
She took me in on a winter's night
She drew a bath and the windows steamed
My heart was heavy but her touch was light
She took my blindness and she led me through
In the heart of a lonely man, in the heart of a lonely man
She looked like every woman ever dreamed
The spell is broken and the chains fall free
Finally my heart has come home to me
And with the first rays of the sun I knew
I saw her first in a beggar's game
