Houdini

I wait at the table, And hold hands with weeping strangers Wait for you to join the group The tambourine jingle-jangles The medium roams and rambles Not taken in, I break the circle I want this man To go away now With a kiss I'd pass the key And feel your tongue Teasing and receiving. With your spit Still on my lip You hit the water Him and I in the room To prove you are with us too He's using code that only you and I know This is no trick of his This is your magic I'd catch the cues Watching you Hoping you'd do something wrong Everybody thinks you'll never make it But every time you escape 'Rosabel believe, Not even eternity Can hold Houdini!' "Rosabel, believe!" Through the glass I'd watch you breathe ("Not even eternity") Bound and drowned And paler than you've ever been ("will hold Houdini!") With your life The only thing in my mind We pull you from the water (Houdini!) You ("Hou-di-ni") And I and Rosabel believe --- Houdini - Kate Bush
