DEANNA~ filk

by Moria/ The M Continuum

Deanna rings with the chime from the door
And can I help but love her?
She pushes me down onto the floor
But am I still her lover?
All my life I've never seen a woman taken by the sky
Well, would she stay if I promised her heaven
Would she even try?

And I say "Deanna, don't go."
And I say "Deanna. Stay."
And I say "I still cry out for you.
"Don't leave me. Don't leave me."

And now I ring with the bell at her door
But will she even answer?
She flies away on her ship in flight and I am just a dancer.
How can I catch her when she's always taken by the sky?
Well would she stay if I promised to her heaven?
Would she even try?

She leaves me like a cad in the dark; leaves me in darkness.
Leaves me all alone in the bed, when the sky is starless.
Once in a while she comes to see me on Risa.
"Oh no, Deanna," I cry, but she's gone.
My cry has no answer. My cry has no answer.

Again she rings with the bell in the night
How can I help but love her?
She always leaves like a bird in flight but am I still her lover?
All my life I've never seen a woman taken by the sky.
Well, would she stay if I promised to her heaven?
Would she even try?
Say, would she even try?

Dream's undone
She's already gone
My dream's undone
She's already gone

My dreams unwind
And she's so hard to find, I know.
My dream's undone
And she's left me and gone, I know
Dreams unwind
And she's so hard to find, I know
Dream's undone
And she's already gone, I know

Take me with you please, lover
Take me to the sky
Take me now
Take me with you please, lover
Take me to the sky

Still the same
Still the same
Still the same, Deanna

Still the same
Darling, still the same
Still the same

And I still cry out for her,
Don't leave me now."
