Fortune Teller
CANNATA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Had a question or two,seeking answers from you
Through I've never been through this door
I know I've had this feeling,once before

Storylines cross my hand
Knowing rivers take command
With all the double meaning, it's hard believing
Something only you understand

Fortune Teller
what do you see
Silhouettes in the Night, help me to light the Way
Fortune Teller
how can it be?
There's always a price to pay, love is the only Way

Looking glass, hypnotize,teeling truth - telling lies
They say a broken life line, you see,it's not a very good Sign

Dancing shadows on the wall, you're discovering it all
You made your own desicion, you've lost your vision
Staring, straight into the sun

Fortune Teller
what do you see
Silhouettes in the Night,help me to the light the Way
Fortune Teller
how can it be?
There's always a price to pay,love is the only Way

I'm hoping that you,let me get through
Spare the complication
It's true,you don't have to wait,it's never too late
To change the situation

Fortune Teller
what do you see
Silhouettes in the Night,help me to light the Way
Fortune Teller




how can it be?
There's always a price to pay,love is the only Way

Awesome Song. Perfect for times, where you don't know what to do with your live, or when you don't know how to continue it.

Always love to hear your old music Jeff and looking forward to more new music too! One hit wonder someone wrote? Lol Jeff has tons of hits, but for some reason they were hits in Europe and not mainstream here. Doesn't lessen their appeal regardless. Google Jasper Wrath for some other great Cannata songs, or check out Jeff's website.

Ich bin 19 und das ist mein absolutes Lieblingslied. Kenne es, seit ich denken kann, meine Eltern sind große Fans von Cannata.

@jeffcannata Great words from the master himself ! Thank you ...for the music !

One reason Jeff's songs didn't get the attention is he didn't have a band after Jasper Wrath for much of his work. He had people work with him, but much of it is just Jeff.
