Joan Of Arc - OMD

A little catholic girl
Who’s fallen in love
A face on a page
A gift from above

She should have known better
Than to giver her heart
She should have known better
Than to ever part

Without me
Without me

I gave her everything
That I ever owned
I think she Understood
But she never spoke

She shouldn’t oughta try
To be that way
She shouldn’t have to go there
Ever again

Without me
Without me

Now listen to us good
And listen well
Listen to us all
And everything we tell

We should have known better
Than to giver her away
We should have known better
To this very day

Without me
Without me

Now listen Joan of Arc
All you gotta do
Is say the right words
And I’ll be coming through
Hold you in my arms
And take you
Right away

Now she's on her way
To another land
We never understood
Why she gave her hand

She shouldn't oughta promise
Because it's just pretend
I know she doesn't mean it
And she'll leave again


Without me
Without me
Without me
Without me

Joan of Arc Maid of Orleans - OMD

 If Joan of Arc
Had a heart
Would she give it as a gift
To such as me
Who longs to see
How an angel ought to be
She seems to give
Her heart away
Like an orphan on the wain
She cared so much
She offered up
Her body to the flames
