The Glimmer Twins - Blinded By Love lyrics

[Verse 1] The queen of the Nile She laid on her throne And she was drifting downstream On a barge that was burnished with gold Royal purple the sails So sweetly perfumed And poor Mark Antony's Senses were drowned And his future was doomed [Chorus] He was blinded by love[x2] [Verse 2] The Philistines paid For Samson's blind rage The secrets that two lovers share Should never have been betrayed [Chorus] [Bridge] Now it's no use crying or weeping You better lock up your soul for safe keeping Promise me [Verse 3] The poor Prince of Wales He gave up his crown All for the trivial pursuit of A parvenu second-hand lady So lovers beware If you lose your heart Careful now, don't lose your mind Don't mortgage your soul to a stranger [Chorus][x2]
