I Am The One You Warned Me Of

Fresh from zone of moisture

And afterward the meet

With spangles and my long-tailed suits

And songs to haunt the one that saves

Just call me Desdenova

I'm sure to be the lucky one

When destiny assigns wisdom

Known to me through starry wisdom

I am (I am) the one you warned me of

I am (I am) the one who'd never, never lie

The writing in the notebook

Notation from the stars

Songs by Desdenova

And frost warnings from the woman's farm

Whose agents could not ever see

His hilly eyes and two green rings

Obscured sight and fancy dreams

Poor en masse, those thirteen fancy dreams

I am (I am) the one you warned me of

I am (I am) the one who'd never, never, never, never, never lie

Eyes like bottles and hands in my hair

Bottles of blackness, the blacker the spare

I'll sit myself behind that clock

And pray to a diamond belfry

Five fingers have I to play them a hand

Ten fingers have I to play them a hand

In despond chains of mimicry

Whose notes will never ever fly

Until they've written those timely tunes

And entered that system from outside

I am (I am) the one you warned me of

I am (I am) the one who'd never, never lie

I am (I am) the one you warned me of

I am (I am) the one who'd never, never lie

No, no, no, no

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

I am
