The Lilac Time - Fortunes lyrics

Fortunes left in the bank For the taxman to take And for no one to thank I can't value my interest in you Evaluate what I can do You are not really depressed And I'm not obsessed by you Never undressed with you Who sins more sweetly than you? And so unashamedly too? Girl in the choir and singing How you inspire all this longing There can't be a man who'd damn you So how come not one understands you? Always I single you out Your voice from the others As if you were shouting Or whispering into my ear The unison I always hear I see a girl in the choir She sings the same harmony Is part of the score with me Follow her into the fire In love with the girl in the choir Girl in the choir and singing How you inspire all this longing There can't be a man who'd damn you So how come not one understands you?
