In the crystal springs A midsummer's dream Up and over the gates Where rhododendrons ring Under serpens skies Filled with dragonflies Love-in-idleness collects Around your eyes The cicadas hum They're in love with everyone The water runs Under weeping willow trees With a pocketknife Two names inscribed You could hold it to my throat
You could take my life Oh, when you call my name I can feel you In my veins Oh, when you make me cry I feel helpless There's nothing like it I feel helpless There's nothing like it In the crystal springs A midsummer's dream An easy melody That can't be ignored Can't be transcribed Can't be written down That can't be denied
