There she stands, this lovely creature
There she stands, there she stands
With her hair full of ribbons
And green gloves on her handsSo I asked this lovely creature
Yes, I asked, yes I asked
Would she walk with me a while
Through this night so fastShe took my hand, this lovely creature
"Yes", she said, "Yes", she said
"Yes, I'll walk with you a while"—
It was a joyful man she led
Over hills, this lovely creature
Over mountains, over ranges
By great pyramids and sphinxes
We met drifters and strangersOh, the sands, my lovely creature
And the mad, moaning winds
At night the deserts writhed
With diabolical thingsThrough the night, through the night
The wind lashed and it whipped me
When I got home, my creature
Was no longer with me
Somewhere she lies, this lovely creature
Beneath the slow drifting sands
With her hair full of ribbons
And green gloves on her hands
