Joan of Arc

This song made me go out and get a book on Joan and learn a little about her. The simple music, building in intensity, and Pauls' voice reaching, almost pleading for permission to enter your hearts and minds make this a truly powerful song.

Hi Major Valor, just a minor clarification. It was Andy McCluskey not Paul Humphreys on vocals for this enchanting song. Anyway, great song!

Certainly a topic Andy liked as this heroine is in multiple OMD tunes. Love this one.

These lyrics are incorrect. The lyrics above are actually for "Maid of Orleans".

Joan Of Arc. Little catholic girl is fallin' in love A face on a page, a gift from above She should've known better than to give her heart She should've known better than to ever part without me, without me I gave her everything that I ever owned I think she understood it but she never spoke She shouldn't oughta try to be that way She shouldn't have to go there every day without me, without me

Now listen to us good and listen well Listen to us all and everything we tell We should've known better than to give her away We should've known better to this very day, without me, without me Listen Joan of Arc, all you gotta do Say the right words and I'll be coming through Hold you in my arms and take you right away Now she's turned away to another land We never understood it why she gave her hand She shouldn't oughta promise, cause it's just pretend I know she doesn't mean it and she'll leave again without me, without me Without me, without me
