lyrics

Sheherezade
Copyright © 2009 David McCann All Rights Reserved

You take away the morning sun;
Daytime skies are never blue.
But when the day is dead and dun,
You bring the moon and stars with you.

Chorus
When night-time comes
Won't you be true,
Sheherezade please?
But if my choice
Is truth or you,
Sheherezade
Tell a tale for me.

And every morning I must choose;
Have I been blest or am I cursed?
But when the sorceress is you,
Even the best is for the worst.

Chorus

Bridge
A thousand nights that seemed like one.
See - now another night's begun.

Tomorrow will you rise and go,
And steal the sunlight from my eyes,
Or will you stay with me and show
That you have made an end to lies

Chorus

But if my choice
Is truth or you,
Sheherezade
Tell a tale for me…
