Lyrics
CONVERT MAN
I’ll hold love in my arms
Help myself with all her charms
From her fountain I will drink
Fill my cup up to the brink
Love will step out of the shade
With all the promises she made
And I’ll take her by the word
With everything I wrote & heard
She will be my only friend
My companion till the end
And – accordin to the plan –
I will be a convert man
I been wonderin for so long
Put my yearnin into song
Love has fed me with her schemes
I turned ‘em into dulcet dreams
Dreams of wondrous reveries
With fairies floatin through the trees
When I woke up they were gone
So I just wrote another song
Love will look into my eyes
Checkin if I’m worth the prize
A disciple of a religious past
Makes for no convert man at last
Some day she’ll sing the last refrain
To calm me down & to explain
All that I don’t understand
That makes up for a convert man
