Lyrics for Troubadour

As she steps near me, my blood feels the chance All spinning and swirling, it yearns for the dance To become part of me poor one, to take part of her Don't say that tomorrow will bring me her love Don't let me wait for words undestined from above Let me laugh through her fingers and smile through her hair Let me love the one I see, for I know that she's there For tomorrow and today aren't here anymore Sing songs for pennies, tip my hat, couldn't get many All around the city are the Troubadours Sing songs for pennies, tip my hat, couldn't get many All around the city see the Troubadours Singing songs sadly, sing songs so lonely All around the city see the Troubadours Town town, town, all around the town Sing songs sadly As she steps near me, my blood feels the chance All spinning and whirling, it yearns for the dance To take part of her fair one, to know part of her
