For Emily Whenever I May Find Her

What a dream I had, dressed in organdy

 Clothed in crinoline, of smoky Burgundy

 Softer than the rain

 

I wandered empty streets, down past the shop displays

 I heard cathedral bells, tripping down the alley ways

 As I walked on



 And when you ran to me your cheeks flushed with the night

 We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight

 I held your hand

 

And when I awoke and felt you warm and near

 I kissed your honey hair with my grateful tears

 Oh I love you, girl

 

Oh, I love you
