There Is a Woman Video (MV)

There is a woman, she looked my way
I had nothing to offer, she had nothing to say
So I paid what I had owed
To the prisoner of the road
And I settled for the night where I can't afford to stay

And here I am
Yes, here I am
And nobody thought to ask my name

There is a child, a child of pride
Or maybe one of envy that you tried to take in stride
Your trusty dagger in your hand
A foreign prince upon your land
Hurry, oh hurry now, before he takes a bride

And here I am
Yes, here I am
And nobody thought to ask my name

I've stared at moonbeams through a lunar eclipse
I've seen a tiny golden cigarette pressed between your lips
Take the smoke out of your lung
Sing a song you never sung
While I stand in the corner and I try to move my hips

Well, here I am
Yes, here I am
And nobody thought to ask my name

You whispered softly beneath the cover
You might've loved me as a friend when I killed you as a lover
No, I won't excuse your patience, I've been hurt too many times
Your temple was a courtroom, my sacrifice a crime

And here I am
Yes, here I am
And nobody thought to ask my name
