Johanna
Jamie Campbell Bower Johnny Depp Lyrics

I feel you Johanna
I sense your presence, Johanna

I feel you
I feel your spirit

Do they think that walls can hide you?
Even though you're shut inside by walls, do you believe that can stop me from feeling you?

Even now I'm at your window
Right now I'm near your window, Johanna

I am in the dark beside you
I'm next to you in the darkness

Buried sweetly in your yellow hair, Johanna
Your yellow hair is beautiful, Johanna, and it's like I'm buried beneath it

And are you beautiful and pale with yellow hair like her?
Are you as beautiful and pale as the image of you I carry inside, with yellow hair like hers?

I'd want you beautiful and pale the way I've dreamed you were, Johanna
As I dreamed of you, Johanna, I'd want you to look as beautiful and pale as I imagined

And if you're beautiful, what then, with yellow hair like wheat?
If you are indeed beautiful with yellow hair like wheat, then what's next?

I think we shall not meet again, my little dove, my sweet Johanna
I don't think we'll ever meet again, my little dove, my sweet Johanna

I'll steal you Johanna
I'll take you away, Johanna

Good-bye Johanna
Farewell, Johanna

You're gone and yet you're mine
Even though you're gone, you still belong to me in my heart and mind

I'm fine Johanna, I'm fine
I'll be alright, Johanna, I'll be alright

Smoke, smoke, sign of the Devil, sign of the Devil, c'iy on fire, witch, a witch
Smoke rising like a witch's spell, it's a sign of the devil, the city is on fire and there's a wicked witch around

Smell that Sir? An evil smell, ev'ry night at the Vesper's bell, smoke that comes from the mouth of hell, c'iy on fire, c'iy on fire, mischief, mischief, mischief
Can you smell it, Sir? That evil odor that comes every evening at the ringing of the vespers, smoke that seems to be the breath of hell itself; the city is under attack, and there are mischievous plotters behind it all

And if I never hear your voice, my turtledove, my dear, I still have reason to rejoice, the way ahead is clear, Johanna
Even if I never hear your voice again, my beloved Johanna, just knowing that the path ahead is clear brings me joy

And in the darkness, when I'm blind with what I can't forget, it's always morning in my mind, my little lamb, my pet, Johanna, you stay Johanna
Even when I'm in the dark and blinded by memories that won't leave me, I can see the morning light in my mind, and I picture you, Johanna, staying by my side

(Johanna) The way I've dreamed you are, oh look Johanna, a star (buried sweetly in your yellow hair)
Just as I imagined, Johanna, and look - there's a star, shining beautifully in the midst of your yellow hair

There, there, somebody, somebody, look up there, didn't I tell you? Smell that air, c'iy on fire, quick Sir, run and tell more and more like a witch's spell, there it is, there it is, the unholy smell, tell it to the Beadle, and police as well, tell 'em, tell 'em, help, fiend, c'iy on fire, c'it on fire, mischief, mischief
Look, there, someone - look up! Didn't I say so? You smell it too, don't you - the city is burning, hurry up, Sir, and spread the word; it's like a wicked witch's spell, there it is, there it is - that unholy smell; tell the Beadle and the police, tell them all you know, and beg for help, for this is fiendish mischief at work

And though I'll think of you, I guess until the day I die, I think I miss you less and less, as everyday goes by, Johanna, Johanna
I'll keep thinking of you, Johanna, I suppose, until the day I die, but every day now it seems I miss you just a little bit less

And you'd be beautiful and pale, and look too much like her, if only angels could prevail, we'd be the way we were, Johanna
You would be just as beautiful and pale as her, Johanna - and if only we could be rescued by angels, we'd be together again, just as we were before

Wake up, Johanna, another bright red day, we learn Johanna, to say goodbye
Wake up, Johanna - there's another fiery, troubling day to face; we learn, Johanna, to say goodbye and to move on

I'll steal you Johanna
I'll always cherish and hold on to you, Johanna
