Buffy Sainte-Marie
Poppies
[Verse 1]
I tippy-toe across your dream each night
So as not to wake you
Asleep in your slumber
A garland of flowers
Yellow and white around your waist

[Verse 2]
While I walk these paths of ice
Ice, my breast
And strings of ice, my hair
My hands two hooks of steel

[Verse 3]
Ice nose, snow eyes
Frozen open mouth
Flakes of snow your bridal veils
I come down the soft white path
Bouquets of poppies
Spilling from my heart

[Outro]
God Is Alive, Magic Is Afoot
God Is Alive, Magic Is Afoot
God Is Alive, Magic Is Afoot
