K-POP Lyrics Song

Judy CollinsTake This Longing

So let me judge your love affair in this very room
Oh take this longing from my tongue
I'll even wear these old laurel leaves that he's shaken from his head
Just take this longing from my tongue
They found what they will always want again
Untie for me your hired blue gown
Like you would do for one that you love
And everything depends upon how near you sleep to me
Let me see your beauty broken down
I stand in ruins behind you
Many men have loved the bells you fastened to the rein
Oh take this longing from my tongue
Whatever useless things these hands have done
Like you would do for one you love
All the useless things my hands have done
Like you would do for one you love
Let me see your beauty broken down
You're faithful to the better man, I'm afraid that he left
I would like to try your charity
Like you would do for one your love
Let me see your beauty broken down
I love to see you naked over there especially from the back
Until you cry, now you must try my greed
With your winter clothes, your broken sandal straps
Just take this longing from my tongue
Your body like a searchlight my poverty revealed
Hungry as an archway through which the troops have passed
All the lonely things my hands have done
Your beauty lost to you yourself just as it was lost to them
All the useless things my hands have done
Like you would do for one you love
And everyone who wanted you
Where I have sentenced mine to death
So let me judge your love affair in this very room
Oh take this longing from my tongue
I'll even wear these old laurel leaves that he's shaken from his head
Just take this longing from my tongue
They found what they will always want again
Untie for me your hired blue gown
Like you would do for one that you love
And everything depends upon how near you sleep to me
Let me see your beauty broken down
I stand in ruins behind you
Many men have loved the bells you fastened to the rein
Oh take this longing from my tongue
Whatever useless things these hands have done
Like you would do for one you love
All the useless things my hands have done
Like you would do for one you love
Let me see your beauty broken down
You're faithful to the better man, I'm afraid that he left
I would like to try your charity
Like you would do for one your love
Let me see your beauty broken down
I love to see you naked over there especially from the back
Until you cry, now you must try my greed
With your winter clothes, your broken sandal straps
Just take this longing from my tongue
Your body like a searchlight my poverty revealed
Hungry as an archway through which the troops have passed
All the lonely things my hands have done
Your beauty lost to you yourself just as it was lost to them
All the useless things my hands have done
Like you would do for one you love
And everyone who wanted you
Where I have sentenced mine to death
