Rufus Wainwright - Beauty Mark lyrics

I never had it

I never wanted it

I never had your beauty mark

Nor did i have your black hair

And hazel eyes

My early childhood was not as simple

As yours set in the country

No i did not have a fear of nuns who dressed in black

But i do have your taste

I had no radio show

Nor did i have home-made clothes

Home-made curtains of the same material

I never had it

I never wanted it

I never had your beauty mark

But i do have your taste

And i do have your round face and long hands

I think Callas sang a lovely "norma"

You prefer Robson in "deep river"

I may not be so manly

But still i know you love me

Even if i don't have your beauty mark
