tom verlaine – ancient egypt lyrics
(verlaine)
the minute i lay my head on the pillow
i’m in ancient egypt, i can feel it glow,
warm and gold,
gold and warm.
and i’ll see you there all dressed in raindrops,
need i explain? i don’t think so, pops,
warm and gold,
gold and warm.
i’ve been working,
i’ve been chopping wood,
and this makes me a hungry man.
and every time i
look up in my dream,
i feel the touch of your sweet hand.
i sit here now and watch you rub your leg,
you tell me baby, that’s just ok,
ok, ok,
ok
and i like to watch that ripple effect,
as long as there is no shipwreck,
yes i do,
oh, yes i do.
i’ve been working,
i’ve been chopping wood,
and this makes me a hungry man.
and every time i
look up in my dream,
i feel the touch of your sweet hand.
yes, i used to have one or two reservations,
so what?
well, so what?
it’s a likely story, it’s not hard to tell,
maybe you and i will be in for a spell,
in and out,
out and in.
i’ve been working,
i’ve been chopping wood,
and this makes me a hungry man.
and every time i
look up in my dream,
i feel the touch of your sweet hand.
yeah, i’ve been working,
i’ve been chopping wood,
and this makes me a hungry man.
and every time i
look up in my dream,
i feel the touch of your sweet hand.
