Description
"For your listening enjoyment, here is a rather nice new-agey song I created years ago, but somehow forgot to post to YouTube until today. The lyrics of this song are based on a quirky poem excerpted from the short story "The Glass Eye" by John Keir Cross." |

Lyrics[]
Oh she thought she was in China
And a million miles away
All among the tall pagodas
Where the shining geishas play
And the mocking birds were singing
And the lanterns burning red
And the temple bells were ringing
Softly softly in her head
And those high and frozen mountains
Brought her comfort in the night
Golden fish in silver fountains
Wove her garments of delight
And the rich mimosa blossoms
Scented all the shining air
And the mocking birds were nesting
Quietly quietly in her hair
