D C C C/B Am G
What a dream I had, pressed in organdy
G F
Clothed in crinoline of smokey burgandy
C D
Softer than the rain
 
G C C C/B Am G
I wandered empty streets, down past the shop display
G F
I heard cathedral bells, tripping down the alley-way
C D
As I walked on
 
G
And when you ran to me, your cheeks flushed with the night
G F
We walked on frosted fields of juniper and lamplight
C D
I held your hand
 
G C C C/B Am G
And when I awoke and felt your warm and near
G F
I kissed your honey hair, with my grateful tears
C D
Oh I love you girl
 
F C D
Ohhhhh, I looooove youuuuuuuuuu
