Nearly Witches (Ever Since We Met...)
[Spoken:]
Kids, you have to remember I’m up here conducting you for a reason, okay? Watch me, watch my fingers. Here we go. Ready. Watch me...
[Kids singing in French:]
Dès le premier jour
Ton parfum enivra mon amour
Et dans ces instants
J'aimerais être comme toi par moment
Mais depuis ce jour
Je n'ai qu'un seul et unique regret
My wingtips waltz across naive
Wood floors, they creek
Innocently down the stairs
Drag melody
My percussive feet serve cobweb headaches
As a matching set of marching clocks
The slumbering apparitions that they've come to wake up
Here I am, composing a burlesque
Out of where they rest their necks
Sunken in their splintered cradles
And ramshackle heads
They asked for it, as a girl
You have set your heart on
Haunting me forever from the start
It's never silent
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And that one regret is you
How does a heart look
If no one has noticed its presence?
And where does it go?
Trembling hands play my heart
Like the drum but
The beat’s gotten lost in the show
You have set your heart on
Haunting me forever from the start
It's never silent
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And I regret never letting you know
Ever since we met
I only shoot up with your perfume
It's the only thing
That makes me feel as good as you do
Ever since we met
I've got just one regret to live through
And that one regret is you
Mona Lisa please to please ya
(my one regret is you)
Mona Lisa please to please ya
(and that one regret is you)
Mona Lisa please to please ya
