Lyrics
King of the Gypsies
Verse 1:
I know you?re lonely, you?d love me if only
But I won?t let the passion rear it?s ugly head again
If it still lingers, I?ll just snap my fingers
And disappear before the embers can turn to a flame
Chorus:
Cause I?m the king of the gypsies
One shining moment stepping out of the mist
I?m the king of the gypsies
Good for no more than moonlight and a kiss
Verse 2:
I come from a hard town, I don?t let my guard down
I hide behind walls and refuse to feel anything
A touch can be fatal, like threading a needle
I will dance between teardrops and hide in the shadows from love
Chorus:
Cause I?m the king of the gypsies
One shining moment stepping out of the mist
I?m the king of the gypsies
Good for no more than moonlight and a kiss
Chorus:
I?m the king of the gypsies
One shining moment stepping out of the mist
I?m the king of the gypsies
Good for no more than moonlight and a kiss
Verse 3:
With my mythic powers, scale ivory towers
Steal a heart and then fade to an old restless memory .
