Enchantment Passing Through

[Verse 1]

A few more days and we'll be home in glory

Already they'll be getting out the flags

With Memphis high motive dormitory

Still I only see a lot of snags

[Bridge]

For just because I've triumphed as a slaver

Brought beauty back to Egypt by the ton

Of this and every month, now I'm the flavor

And scheduled to do things I've never done

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 2]

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 if my heart is set in stone

[Bridge]

For just because I've triumphed as a slaver

Brought beauty 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

[Chorus]

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 is safe enough in you

And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met

Someone who in hours from now I'll certainly forget

So anonymous and undemanding (Yes you are), enchantment passing through

My secrets and my 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 secrets and my confidence is safe enough with you
