Lyrics Tim Buckley

Tim Buckley

Who Could Deny You

I know you're kind

You've been through the mill

Now you're standing in line

Too proud to beg and too tired to cry

About the one that got away

Your first love

Oh, he taught you how to pay

And now you're all alone

You've got your misery

You were not taught so well, sister

That's why you ended up with me

Now that you've found me

Oh, darling please don't tease me

All of my naked years

Are here in front of me

Come here darling, lay down by my side

Lovin' the way you do

Oh, woman won't you tell me

Tell me who, tell me who can deny you

You love and you lose

You're lost in the blue

Your turn again

You've paid your way

But it's under your skin and it'll never let you go

Under your skin so deep, it never really shows

You're all alone but you've got your misery

The sea is raging honey, reaching for you and me

Now that you've found me

Oh, honey please, please don't tease me

All of my naked years

Are here in front of me

Come here, lay down by my side

I'm lovin' the way you do

Oh, tell me, tell me please

Who, who can deny you

Oh, tell me, tell me please

Who, who can deny you

Oh, tell me, tell me please

Who, who can deny you
