The Ballad of a Nameless Lover Songtext
von Michael Møller

Many men have taken you to where you want to go
Promised you affection in the cab that took your home
Marvelled at your courage on their way to make you tame
They never even knew your name


You′ve seen the light break thought
the windows beating with their hips
Lighting up the sweat that climbed from moustache to the lip
And thought their friends will know about your body and your flame
The'll never even know your name

Searching out a stranger as if ending up a rhyme
In this palace love is simply measured out in time
Whispering a name of some forgotten Persian queen
Leaving you razor, where the number should have been

Many′ve come before and many move have yet to come
Flexed their tatooed mussles as if beating on a drum
As their minds are weakened with the ending of their game
They never even knew your name
