[Db]
[Bb] [Dbm] [Em]
[Abm] Last night, [Fm] I [Eb] dreamed that I [F] was dreaming of [Db] you.
[C] [Fm] [G] And from a window [Abm] across the lawn, I [Eb] watched you [Bbm] undress.
[Dbm]
[C] Wearing a sunset of purple, [Cm] tightly woven around [C] your hair
that rose [Fm] in strangled ebony curls,
[Cm] moving [Ab] in a [Eb] yellow bedroom light.
[Bbm] The [C] air is wet with [F] sound.
[C] The faraway [F] yelping of a [Fm] wounded dog.
[C] And the ground [Fm] is drinking a slow [Ab] faucet leak.
[F] Your house [Ab] is so soft [Eb] and fading
as it [C] soaks the black summer heat.
A [E] light goes [C] on and a door opens.
And a yellow [G] cat [Bb] runs out on the stream of hall [Ab] light
and into the yard.
[Eb] [Bb]
[Eb] A wooden cherry [Bbm] scent is [C] faintly breathing the air.
[Gb] I [Fm] hear your champagne [E] laugh.
[C] You wear [F] two lavender orchids,
one in your [Bb] hair and one on your hip.
[C]
[Eb] A string of yellow [Bb] carnival [C] lights comes on with [G] the [C] dusk,
[Dbm] circling the [C] lake with a slowly dipping halo.
And I hear [F]
a banjo tango.
[Eb]
[C] And you dance into the shadow of a [Bb] black poplar [Fm] tree.
[C] And I watched you [Fm] as you [Cm]
[Bb] disappeared.
[F] [Ab] [Bb] [Fm] I watched you as [Eb] you disappeared.
[Bbm] [C]
I watched you as you disappeared.
I [Fm] watched you as you disappeared.
[Ab] [Eb]
I watched you as [C] you disappeared.
