Eyes could not see what the mind would not let it
Yet the ears heard something, the soul would not forget it
And I stood amongst the sheer multitude
And all I saw was walking dust until I heard you

Your voice resonated with words not meant for me
A dress of tulip yellow walking through a greyish sea
And eyes glimpsed only this but ears focused upon her talking
A sultry ship of melodies in a ocean of dust walking

On and on I searched amongst the colorless and dreary
Until my eyes were red from searching, weak and weary
And I tried as I could to visualize, but my mind just would not let it
The tulip with a melodious voice, and my soul which would not forget it
