Phantom Lover
Why wake a gal like this?
Such surprise
And delight!
Hold me close
Dear husband
All through the night.
You had been gone
Two full years
When on this night
You returned.
Hold me close
Dear husband
All through the night.
Though I yearn
For the real
Flesh and blood
Of your body, my love.
What we shared
That one lonely night
Such a surprise
And delight.
