|
Market in the cool white mornin' |
|
Merchants sell while women buy |
|
Milk, tobacco, soap and matches |
|
Sweep the floor while the dishes dry |
|
Spring whispered in her ear |
|
Like soft |
|
Mediterranean wailin' |
|
Sleepy woman by the window |
|
Dreamin' in the morning air |
|
Of the one who takes her sweetness |
|
By a Chinese lamp upstairs |
|
The steam of |
|
China teaYou could hear the woman sing |
|
In the soft flames of spring |
|
Spring has swept the scarlet side streets |
|
Winds caress, undress, invite |
|
Upstairs by a |
|
China lamp |
|
They softly talk in the cool spring night |
