By townes van zandt |
|
Her face was crystal |
|
Fair and fine |
|
And her breath was morning |
|
And her lips were wine |
|
And her eyes were laughter |
|
And her touch divine |
|
And her face was crystal |
|
And she was mine |
|
If only she |
|
Could feel my pain |
|
But feelin' is a burden |
|
She can't sustain |
|
So like a summer Thursday |
|
I cry for rain |
|
To come and turn |
|
The ground to green again |
|
If only she |
|
Could hear my songs |
|
'bout the empty difference |
|
'tween the rights and wrongs |
|
Then I know that I |
|
Could stand alone |
|
As well as they |
|
Now that she's gone |
|
Her face was crystal |
|
Fair and fine |
|
And her breath was morning |
|
And her lips were wine |
|
And her eyes were laughter |
|
And her touch divine |
|
And her face was crystal |
|
And she was mine |
