Duvalier's Dream - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]
Written by:Kris Kristofferson/Bergen White[00:00:01]
Duvalier was a bitter man who cursed the morning sun[00:00:06]
That brought a new betrayal every day[00:00:14]
He shunned the world of mortals and the sound of human tongues[00:00:20]
And blessed the night that chased their sight away[00:00:27]
A disillusioned dreamer who would never love again[00:00:33]
Who'd tried of it and found that it was rotten[00:00:40]
Preferring perfect strangers to the company of friends[00:00:47]
Because strangers are so easily forgotten[00:00:54]
Oh it's hard to keep believing when you know you've been deceived[00:01:01]
To face a lie and dare to try again but there's nothing like a woman[00:01:07]
With a spell of make believe to make a new believer of a man[00:01:17]
Duvalier took the fickle turns of fortune in his stride[00:01:31]
Expecting next to nothing out of life[00:01:38]
Till fortune found a girl who fanned a flame he thought had died[00:01:44]
Whose burning beauty cut him like a knife[00:01:51]
She touched him through the senses that his mind could not control[00:01:58]
Then smiling stepped aside and watched him fall[00:02:05]
Betrayed by his own body and the hunger in his soul[00:02:12]
Duvalier was a dreamer after all[00:02:19]
Oh it's hard to keep believing when you know you've been deceived[00:02:25]
To face a lie and dare to try again but there's nothing like a woman[00:02:32]
With a spell of make believe to make a new believer of a man[00:02:41]
