Doro The Fortuneteller
I never got into magic - but the magic got into me. I'd been tangled up in love, but afraid of being free. Men... I don't understand them: They take you for all you got And leave you howling at the moon And thinking of... I don't know what... Yeah I do... thinking of that man... Is he alone? Is he thinking of me? Does he still love me? I needed some answers - deep answers So there I was, on the side of town where the beggars sleep.. It was late - real late. But I knew she'd be open - gypsies love the night. I heard that from a friend who once knew one. Sure enough, her light was on and her door was cracked; The smell of incense made the night air cry out in desperation. But I didn't care, I was looking for revelation, So I walked in, and made my way through a curtain of beads. There must have been ten thousand candles - but only one was lit. I put some money on the table And she reached for a deck of cards and said: "Sit." She told me to look in her eyes.. I did... but I also kept my eye on that deck She gazed at a card... and then she said: "I can see that you don't really want to know What your future holds, as you travel down the road: You'd rather believe that dreams do come true, Than to find out they can lie to you..." She picked the money up from the table, and stuffed it in her blouse. I said: "Wait a minute - I was expecting a little bit more than that" She said: "What do you want me to do? - Turn myself into a cat? I could, you know" - and I believed her... Everything got deadly quiet... Man, I was scared - but I didn't show it. Then she broke the silence... "Why are your palms sweating, child?" God - this woman was good! I asked her to read my palm - she said: "All right, but it'll cost you another fifty And then I'm going to bed - gypsies hate the night... Gimme your hand - I'm gonna read between the lines." "I can see that you don't really want to know What your future holds, as you travel down the road: You'd rather believe that dreams do come true, Than to find he might be leaving you." She said: "I can see that you don't really want to know What your future holds, as you travel down the road: You'd rather believe that dreams do come true - So does the man who's followed you."
