lyrics

F# /Bm/ G Gm/F/ Cmaj7/Bm/G/Bm/F#/Bm

I watch you walk in the room
with Mr Birmingham
You'll leave with flowers
In your pretty little virgin hand
You’ll talk for hours about
Things you won’t understand
It's the power and the reason of your beauty

The years he fought in the Crimean war
Taught him that any opposition
Be it heart or cannonball
Is nothing to be feared
Because he'll win, of course
It's the power and the reason of his beauty

But there is something you should know, my love.
A man like this is not for you, my love.
I really wouldn't blame you, if you escaped for an hour.
And then you'll pass through fire, you'll pass through fear ,
a world of sound that your heart can't hear.
Just use the power and the reason of your beauty

Take good care of what was mine, my love.
Trust your soul and not your mind , my love.
I'll let you go with as much grace as I can muster..
I’ll Watch you pass through pain, and pass through doubt ,
Just keep the mud off your dress and the rain out your mouth.
And Use the power and the reason of your beauty
