Rufus Wainwright - Welcome to the Ball lyrics

I will never be defeated
I will never come undone
I will never know the way it
Feels to be just anyone
I will never fall just as you
All fall around me so i will never know
I will never know

I will never be the one who tells
You that I need you more
Nor will I have to be the
One who’s walking out the door
When the hour has struck you will receive
A note addressed from me i will never be
Be the one you see

So baby welcome to the ball
Don’t worry all about nothin' at all
I don’t know how you made it in
But since you have arrived let it begin

'Cause somethin' in your eyes has made this
Room a much more brighter place
The chandeliers and fireplaces all seem
Jealous of your face
Something in your smile has left a
Light that has left a trace
Come and take my hand
And let you lead me to the promised land
That no one could have ever been promised

I don’t know if you feel it
And I don’t really care
'Cause long ago when I was young and innocent
They brought me here
Far from my mothers home i was all alone
I was all alone

So baby welcome to the ball
Don’t worry all about nothin' at all
I don’t know how you made it in
But since you have arrived let it begin
