(Lady)
Kids. you have to remember I'm up here conducting you for a reason.
Okay.
Watch me
Watch my fingers.
Here we go.
Ready.
Watch me.
(Children singing in French)
My wing tips waltz across naive
Wood floors, they creak.
Innocently down the stairs
Drag melody
My percussive feet serve cobweb headaches
As a matching set of marching clocks
The slumbering apparitions
That they've come to wake up
Here I am
Composing a burlesque
Out of where they rest their necks
Sulking in their splintered cradles
And ramshackle heads
They ask for it
As a girl
You have set your heart on
Haunting me forever
From the start
It's never silent
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret
To live through
And that one regret is you.
Who does a heart love?
If no one has noticed its presence?
And where does it go?
Trembling hands play my heart
Like the trumpets
The beat's gotten lost in the show.
You have set your heart on
Haunting me forever
From the start
It's never silent
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret
To live through
And I regret ever letting you go!
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret
To live through
And that one regret is you.
