You could faint from the strong perfume
And she said her name was libertine
In my ear, a voice said don't be a fool stay clear,
Better stay away from libertine
Stay away from libertine
Stay away from libertine
Stay away from libertine
So I stayed out of view
But my eyes couldn't come unglued
I was hypnotized by libertine
So in time I broke down and I lost my mind
Then I made a move on libertine
Stay away from libertine
Made a move on libertine
Stay away from libertine
I made my move on libertine
And I waited all night
'til the timing was right
For another man was reaching for her hand
But he went to the phone
And when I got her alone
It just wasn't the same
Tell me what's in a name?
She made me drunk with her charms
Then she left on her husband's arm
And I got the shaft from libertine
I was weak and I know just from whence I speak,
Better stay away from libertine
Stay away from libertine
When she walked in the room You could faint from the strong perfume And she said her name was libertine In my ear, a voice said don't be a fool stay clear, Better stay away from libertine Stay away from libertine Stay away from libertine Stay away from libertine So I stayed out of view But my eyes couldn't come unglued I was hypnotized by libertine So in time I broke down and I lost my mind Then I made a move on libertine Stay away from libertine Made a move on libertine Stay away from libertine I made my move on libertine And I waited all night 'til the timing was right For another man was reaching for her hand But he went to the phone And when I got her alone It just wasn't the same Tell me what's in a name? She made me drunk with her charms Then she left on her husband's arm And I got the shaft from libertine I was weak and I know just from whence I speak, Better stay away from libertine Stay away from libertine Explain Request ×
