Antony And The Johnsons
"Christina's Farm"
I got kissed by
A turtle dove
Upon a cold
Paris manger
I was waking up
To my love
First moment's
Dawning danger
Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
I awoke to find
A whiteness inside
Everything did shine
Slyly, from each body
Halos from within
Diamonds the air in
As we crossed to where
The Virgin Mary
Moves over the fields
Here and there, she kneels
Sighing sweet relief
Upon the prairie
As the rich winds blow
Kiss each flamingo
Tousle reckless trains of
The wild white horses
And at night the owl
Streaks the field and howls
She seizes a kitten
Stops wind aghast
To hear them shudder
