Paul and Virginia
words and music: Bergquist
recording: Till We Have Faces
spill-tainted pages of poetic prophecy
tickle my interest and taunt at my fantasy
gentle new lover, favorite friend
with hidden desire that bothers my conscience
again
like paul and virginia!
sit close to me on the swing
like paul and virginia!
sit close to me and i’ll sing
(whisper my name, kiss me again)
i’ll sing for you
with you
oh, you
cobalt blue vessels, clean same sex rabbits
old movie romance and a healthy new habit
moving in passion, resting in reason
with a strong tender poet who touches each region
within
illuminatiions that shine on the river
subliminal glances provoking a shiver
palms full of mystery, fingers of magic
greetings so glorious, partings so tragic
like paul and virginia!
