It could be rain or condensation
Wets her body in a mist
My mind expanded by sensation
My heartbeat tighter than a fist
...
I travelled alone
Without a friend
I felt the bitter taste of loneliness
Would never end.
...
Just one more day to go
Then I’ll be with my girl
Has it really been so long since
She came into my world
...
Take me to the Narva
Where our history began
Our love is like the river
That no earthly bridge could span
...
I travelled far to see a maiden
Born of beauty, face sublime
She took my reason and my senses
All abandoned lost in time
...
Sitting in a crowded café
All at once I saw a dream
A vision stood before me, smiling,
And asked if she could take my cream
...
So you love an English man
You heard about his home
You’ve seen the gardens of Pavlovsk
Imagined the palaces of Rome
...
Early Morning Shower
It could be rain or condensation
Wets her body in a mist
My mind expanded by sensation
My heartbeat tighter than a fist
What a glorious view beholds me
Most privileged of lucky men
First it’s one curve then another
Sight to see again again
And all the time she knows I’m watching
Lascivious lips that pout my way
I know she’s thinking of what comes after
For the night is long just as the day!
