Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady
/
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours
/
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child
And when it rains the rain falls down
Washing out the cattle town
And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown
°
And she dreams of crystal streams
/
Of days gone by when we would lean
/
Laughing fit to burst upon each other
I can see you sitting eating apples in the evening
The fruit juice flowing slowly, slowly, slowly
Down the bronze of your body
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child
And when it rains the rain falls down...
Oh if only I could nestle in the cradle of your cabin
My arms around your shoulders the windows wide and open
While the swallow and the sycamore are playing in the valley
Oh I miss you Amoreena like a king bee misses honey
And when it rains the rain falls down...
And when it rains the rain falls down...

Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady
Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak
Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours
Rolling through the hay like a puppy child
