Lyrics

Blue Orchid

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The ancient streets so crowded and narrow

The winding stairs climb up, up high

The air tonight hangs sour and heavy

I'm dying up here love, lie with me lie

The view electrical and sprawling

The city lights move out and on and on

Out there in the halo of the skyline

My guardian angel looks down upon me

Fall tonight sweet Paris Rain

Shower me in her warm kisses

A burning star over long lost highways

My fallen love died so young

And all the gifts you gave I have them

And all your love I'm still holding onto

She rides the halo of the skyline

My fallen sister died so young

Our last goodbye I wanted to be there

To bathe the loss from your fading eyes

Close these sweeping long gray curtains

The dizzying spiraling heights

Soft light pours into the room

Fingers glide over my face

A voice speaks, a figure moves

How could I walk these old dim halls again

How could I leave this room all alone

When she comes by every morning

Brings back pink and pale blue orchids

When she comes by every afternoon

Piano music weeps quietly

As May melts into June

When she comes by every evening

Lays down beside me softly breathing
