Lyrics for For Emily, Whenever I May Find Her

What a dream I had pressed 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 alleyways 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
