Josephine Foster - A Thimble Full of Milk lyrics

Come, come unto me My dear one oh my dove There is no spot on thee No blemish that i see Your teeth are flocks of sheep Abathed in camphire sweet Your lips are mine to greet Your tongue my sugared meat Sky so blue! Rivulating undulating summer shadows Stars are glittering lace easter bonnets Upon dew upon dew Set me as a seal upon your heart As a seal upon your brow For love defies our d**h Rerenders us somehow The bone that binds our brains Becomes a goblet deep Birds lay it on a bough And rock their eggs to sleep Sky so blue! Rivulating undulating summer shadows Stars are glittering lace easter bonnets Upon dew upon dew Come untie my knotted soul And loosen my bound feet Unbelt our girdled joy A joy not ours to keep Come trim your bearded bride I laugh at your brown hide As smooth as otter shells And softly ring your bells The navel shines of silk A thimbleful of milk
