Overture

Overture
Patrick Wolf

Its wonderful
What a smile can hide
If the teeth shine right
And its nice and wide
So magical
All you can keep inside
If you bury it deep
No-one can find a thing
No
Well come on now
Open wide
Open up now
Dont you think its time?
To look back at that boy on his way to school
Such a heavy heart
Such a heavy jewel
Hiding something that one day hell sell
But now if no one shows
Then no one tells a thing
No?
Well come on now open wide
Open up now
Dont you think its time?
Now after all these years
You are at last opening
Was it worth all that war just to win?
And so caught up in speed of the days
And your sin
Dont forget how the story begins
Dont forget

Now im seeing all your lovers and your enemies
Been turning their keys
So full of need
All trying to seize that jewel you keep
'What makes it shine?
What makes it mine?'
Well I dont care
Just come on now
Open wide
Open up now
Theres so much love for youll find
Now what will you find?

Now after all these years
You are at last opening
Was it worth all that war just to win?
Well if it was
Then come on take me back
To where it begins
Come on take me back
To where it begins
Come on take me back
To where it begins
Come on
Open wide
And let some light in...
