|
In your little china dress |
|
That's how i loved you best |
|
With a tulip to your chest |
|
In the silk and satin pressed |
|
With a left shoe on my right |
|
And my tongue was tangled tight |
|
The strain of it went light |
|
As you grinned in your delight |
|
Sayin' come on, come on, come on breath |
|
The night air off my sleeve |
|
Though the armies all had died |
|
And the cavalry wouldn't ride |
|
The whores became the brides |
|
The night st augustine died |
|
And you said come on, come on, come on breath |
|
The night air off my sleeve |
|
When no one mans the sails |
|
And the search for youth has failed |
|
When my coffin is all but nailed |
|
The words that will prevail |
|
Are you and come on, come on, come on breath |
|
The night air off my sleeve |
|
Come on, come on, come on breath |
|
The night air off my sleeve |
|
Come on, come on, come on breath |
|
The night air off my sleeve |
