With your drop dead gorgeous looks
You seduce them, one by one
Yet no one knows or has a clue,
Remaining forever enchanted by your charms,
As you cajole and captivate
Ensnared inside your spell, stay fascinated, they do
Can a human look into the depths of hell?
And live to tell the tale?

Of he and she, exclusively
Hypnotic dreams, yet obscured,
Tied in a knot of pining hot
Passionate allure,
Each one certain she’s the chosen
Lost in love’s romantic high,
Seeking answers spoken
Unaware they’re all returned
By none other than,
The oracle of Delphi …

I, the priestess watch outside that shrouded veil
With portentous will and snickering shrills,
Exhaling sorrow into their worlds
Quietly now, I have to laugh and roll,
Keep my hand close, won't let this slip away
Can’t let those poor souls know,
They’ve sought the answer to their questions
From the Oracle of Apollo ...
