Townes Van Zandt — Like a Summer Thursday

[Verse 1] Her face was crystal, fair, and fine And her breath was morning and her lips were wine And her eyes were laughter and her touch divine And her face was crystal and she was mine [Verse 2] If only she could feel my pain But feelin' is a burden she can't sustain So like a summer Thursday, I cry for rain To come and turn the ground to green again [Verse 3] If only she could hear my songs About the empty difference 'tween rights and wrongs Then I know that I could stand alone As well as they now that she's gone [Verse 1] Her face was crystal, fair, and fine And her breath was morning and her lips were wine And her eyes were laughter and her touch divine And her face was crystal and she was mine
