Dazzle the Beast Songtext
von Ferron

Now it′s Christmas on the cape and I'm a tagalong friend
Another winter on the island might have driven me insane
It′s been a series of cheery gatherings coming slow to a close
And the last few can't seem to say goodbye
And in their laughter I'm dozing


And there′s a knock on the door, it wakes me up with a start
You′re standing there with your new love, oh home of my heart
I try to think of what I'm wearing, hoping none of it′s yours
Always amazed at what becomes yours after everything goes

I see she doesn't have my slouch and she doesn′t have my nose
And she doesn't have my luck and she doesn′t have your clothes
I watched you quit with the old and move to the east
You were going for the gold, you were gonna dazzle the beast

And it was out with the old and you moved to the east
You were after the gold, you were gonna dazzle the beast
Well, where's Houdini when you need him to make a joker an ace?
To make light of the moment by turning time back into space
