Enchantment Passing Through

A few more days and we’ll be home in glory
Already they’ll be getting out the flags
With Memphis high motive dormitory
Still I only see a lot of snags
For just because I’ve triumphed as a slaver
Brought beauty back to Egypt by the ton
Of this and every month, now I’m the flavor
And scheduled to do things I’ve never done
And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
A woman who in hours from now I’ll certainly forget
Anonymous and undemanding, enchantment passing through
My secrets and my confidence are safe enough with you
My days out on the field are all but ended
They’ll put me out to grass which means the throne
Bedecked and bejeweled alongside my intended
I feel as if my heart is set in stone
For just because I’ve triumphed as a slaver
Brought beauty back to Egypt by the ton
Of this and every month, I’m now the flavor
And scheduled to do things I’ve never done
And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
A woman who in hours from now I’ll certainly forget
Anonymous and undemanding, enchantment passing through
My secrets and my confidence is safe enough in you
And why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
Someone who in hours from now I’ll certainly forget
So anonymous and undemanding, yes you are, enchantment passing through
My secrets and my confidence is safe enough with you
Why should I tell you this, a stranger I just met
A woman who in hours from now I’ll certainly forget
Anonymous and undemanding, enchantment passing through
My secrets and my confidence is safe enough with you
