Porcelain Blue

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
 In porcelain blue
