Gypsy

Gypsy

You come from far away

With pictures in youryes

Of coffee shops andorning streets

In the blue and silent sunrise

But night is the cathedral

Where we recognized the sign

We strangers knowachther now

As partf the wholeesign

Oh

holde like a baby

That will not fall asleep

Curle up inside you

And lete hear you through the heat

Oh~~

You are the jesterf this courtyard

With a smile like a girl's

Distracted by the women

With theimples and the curls

By the pretty and theischievous

By the timid and the blessed

By the blowing skirtsf ladies

Who promise to gather you too their breast

You have handsf raining water

And thatarring in yourar

The wisdomn your face

Denies the numberf your years

With the fingersf the potter

And the laughing talef the fool

The arrangerfisorder

With your strange and simple rules

Yes now I'veete another spinner

Of strange and gauzy threads

With a long and slender body

And a bump upon the head

With a long and slender body

And the sweetest softest hands

And we'll blow away forever soon

And gon toifferent lands

And pleaseo notver look fore

But withe you will stay

And you will hear yourself in song

Blowing byneay
