Song language: English
Blue Orchids |
| The ancient streets, so crowded and narrow |
| 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 highway |
| My fallen lover 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 |
| 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 |
