Michaelangelo Songtext
von Prince

Every summer in the gardens of Florence
A peasant of female persuasion
Used to cry for Michaelangelo
To save her from death′s invitation

Some say this woman was crazy
Others say this woman was possessed
But just one look at her face
And it's evident to her he was the best

Oh, dear Michaelangelo
Color the dreams in my head
I look at your paintings
And I′m with you in your bed

Dear Michaelangelo
Save me from death's invitation
I will make love to no one
Unless he's of your persuasion


By summer′s end came many offers
All of which the peasant refused
She wanted Michaelangelo
And no other, no other man would do

No one could speak of passion and touch her
Touch her the way he does
No one except Michaelangelo
It was him or a life without love

Dear Michaelangelo
Color the dreams in my head
I look at your paintings
And I′m with you in your bed

Dear Michaelangelo
Save me from death's invitation
I will make love to no one
Unless he′s of your persuasion

A life without love
A life without love
Don't die
Don′t die without love

Dear Michaelangelo
Dear Michaelangelo


Dear Michaelangelo
Color the dreams in my head
I look at your paintings
And I'm with you in your bed

Dear Michaelangelo
Save me from death′s invitation
I will make love to no one
Unless he's of your persuasion

Dear
Dear
Dear Michaelangelo, angel

Dear Michaelangelo
Color the dreams in my head
I look at your paintings
And I'm with you in your bed

Dear Michaelangelo
Save me from death′s invitation
I will make love to no one
Unless he′s of your persuasion

Dear Michaelangelo
Color the dreams in my head
I look at your paintings
And I'm with you in your bed

Dear Michaelangelo
Save me from death′s invitation
I will make love to no one
Unless he's of your persuasion
