He touched me so
I lived to know
That such a day
Hermit had sung
I groped upon his breast
It was a boundless place
To me
La la la la
And silenced as
The awful sea
It's my night's dreams to rest
La la la la
And now I'm different from before
As if I'd breathed
Superior air
Or brushed a royal gown
My feet to that head pondered so
My gypsy face
Transfigured now
To tender early night
He touched me so
I lived to know
That such a day
Hermit had sung
I groped upon his breast
It was a boundless place
To me
La la la la
And silenced as
The awful sea
It's my night's dreams to rest
La la la la
Into this boarding fight I'd come
With Becca to Jerusalem
Would not so ravish to
No Persian baffle that was right
Give such a crucifixion sign
To her in Jerusalem
