Lately, I’ve been thinking
|
How much I miss my lady
|
Amoreena’s in a cornfield
|
Brightening the daybreak
|
Living like a lusty flower
|
Running through the grass for hours
|
Rolling through the hay, oh
|
Like a puppy, child
|
And when it rains, the rain falls down
|
Washing out the cattle town
|
And she’s far away somewhere
|
In her eiderdown
|
And she dreams of crystal streams
|
Of days gone by when we would lean
|
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other
|
I can see you sitting, eating
|
Apples in the evening
|
The fruit juice, flowing slowly, slowly, slowly
|
Down the bronze of your body
|
Living like a lusty flower
|
Running through the grass for hours
|
Rolling through the hay, oh
|
Like a puppy, child
|
And when it rains, the rain falls down
|
Washing out the cattle town
|
And she’s far away somewhere
|
In her eiderdown
|
And she dreams of crystal streams
|
Of days gone by when we would lean
|
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other
|
Oh, if only I could nestle
|
In the cradle of your cabin
|
My arm’s around your shoulder, whoa
|
The window’s wide and open
|
While the swallow and the sycamore, whoa
|
Are playing in the valley
|
Oh, I miss you, Amoreena
|
Like the king bee misses honey
|
And when it rains, the rain falls down
|
Washing out the cattle town
|
And she’s far away somewhere
|
In her eiderdown
|
And she dreams of crystal streams
|
Of days gone by when we would lean
|
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other
|
And when it rains, the rain falls down
|
Washing out the cattle town
|
And she’s far away somewhere
|
In her eiderdown
|
And she dreams of crystal streams
|
Of days gone by when we would lean
|
Laughing, fit to burst upon each other
|
Lately, I’ve been thinking, oh
|
How much I miss my lady
|
Amoreena’s in a cornfield
|
Oh, brightening the daybreak
|
Living like a lusty flower
|
Running through the grass for hours
|
Rolling through the hay, whoa
|
Like a puppy, like a puppy, child, oh |
