(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.
