"Emmanuelle" lyrics

"Emmanuelle"

Can this circle never break now?
Far too much at stake now
I see you on the rise

Can the righteous remain unspoken?
There is little left unbroken
There is little on the line

I need more time
I have my reasons
I've been tried for treason
Tried for loving you

Can I finish what I started?
Can the good I see in me?
Be the good I see in you

I learn to love you
From a distance
Can the light I conjured up?
Bless all of us right here

I need more time
I have my reasons
I've been tried for treason
I've been tried for loving you

Can this circle remain unbroken?
All things are collected now
All things on the line

Emmanuelle
Emmanuelle
Emmanuelle
Right
Emmanuelle, I loved you for your power
Emmanuelle
Emmanuelle

But I need more time
I have my reasons
I've been tried for treason
Tried for loving you
