Enchantment Passing Through (Dru Hill) — текст песни (AIDA)

A few more days and we`ll be home in glory
Already they`ll be getting out the flags
With Memphis high _______ dormitory
For me, I only see a lot of snags

The prospect above all I find distressful
Is having to give up the soldier`s life
If anything I`m rather too successful
They made me hand my sword in for a wife


For just because I`ve triumphed as a slaver
Brought booty back to Egypt by the ton
Of this and every month, I`m now the flavor
And scheduled to do things I`ve never done


And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
A woman who in hours from now I`ll certainly forget
Anonymous and undemanding
Enchantment passing through
My secrets and my confidence are safe enough with you


My days out on the field are all but ended
They`ll put me out to grass which means the throne
Bedecked and bejeweled alongside my intended
I feel as though my heart is set in stone


But maybe I am being far too gloomy
Yes, maybe I`ll make waves in pastures new
Find goverment and politics come to me
As naturally as I now talk to you


For just because I`ve triumphed as a slaver
Brought booty back to Egypt by the ton
Of this and every month, I`m now the flavor
And scheduled to do things I`ve never done


And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
A woman who in hours from now I`ll certainly forget
Anonymous and undemanding
Enchantment passing through
My secret lack of confidence is safe enough with you


Why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
A woman who in hours from now I`ll certainly forget
Anonymous and undemanding
Enchantment passing through
My secret lack of confidence is safe enough with you
