lyrics

I had always pictured my life by somebody's side,
Sweet domesticity preluded by a desperate wanting need,
Unquestioning I had believed that love would find my in the city,
And though not simple I would know it and rise to what was asked of me

But for years that little mill inside my chest has layen so still.
Despite sweet words, from sweet suitors, it would never turn

Your words carry weight, unexpected on the paddles of mill's sails
They're fairly turning now, there's warmth spreading out, I hide my face
away while the,
Ghosts of your clever fingers tips, walk the breadth of my hips for days after
And you're cat-like, bright brown eyes are pulling me close.

and I~~ I am being charmed
and I~~ I am being charmed

Like a diver breaking water, I can feel the splash of heat
Upon recitation of your spells like 'I wish you were here'
I had been unwillingly impervious to these glib things
Could it be my little fawn heart, is finally breathing?

Your words carry weight, unexpected on the paddles of mill's sails
They're fairly turning now, there's warmth spreading out, I hide my face
away while the,
Ghosts of your clever fingers tips, walk the breadth of my hips for days after
And you're cat-like, bright brown eyes are pulling me close.

and I~~ I am being charmed

Someone call the non-believers, priests and unicorns
I hope I wont need exorcism, but you have been warmed
Oooohhhhhh - this again.
Oooooohhhhh - gosh it's been a while,
Oooooohhhhh - gosh it's been a while.
