Porcelain Blue

Porcelain Blue - Kate Campbell/Rodney Crowell/Nanci Griffith

She is standing in the garden

Silently astute

Waiting for the sun to come

And kiss away the dew

How can she be so translucent

From my window view

I can see her heart clear

Through in porcelain blue

You can find me in the city

Where the music grooves

Surrounded by a misty brew

Of magic and voodoo

Lying in my bed

In the sultry afternoon

I can hear those saints

Go marching through

In porcelain blue

I will follow

In that number

And I hope

To meet you there

Blessed Mary

Please don't slumber

Pray for us

Who need your care

Staring at this vase

Searching for my muse

If lovers die together

Are they forever fused

I've heard love's eternal

And I wonder if it's true

Underneath

This crescent city moon

I've heard love's eternal

And I wonder if it's true

Underneath

This crescent city moon

In porcelain blue
