Beauty
Beauty
It's a word that seems made just for her
When she dances and shows off her body, like
A bird spreading its wings to take flight
Then I feel hell opening up beneath my feet
I've set my eyes beneath her gypsy dress
What good is it to pray to Our Lady anymore?
Who
Is the one to cast the first stone at her?
That one doesn't deserve to be on this earth
Oh Lucifer!
Oh! Just let me once
Run my fingers through Esmeralda's hair
Beauty
Is it the devil incarnate in her
To turn my eyes away from the eternal God
Who put in my being this carnal desire
To keep me from looking up to Heaven
She carries within her original sin
Does wanting her make me a criminal?
The one
They thought was just a girl of the night, a girl of nothing
Suddenly seems to bear the weight of humanity's cross
Oh Our Lady!
Oh! Just let me once
Push open the door to Esmeralda's garden
I've set my eyes beneath her gypsy dress
What good is it to pray to Our Lady anymore?
Who
Is the one to cast the first stone at her?
That one doesn't deserve to be on this earth
Oh Lucifer!
Oh! Just let me once
Run my fingers through Esmeralda's hair
Esmeralda.
