lyrics

I held my tongue
then let it slip like a dress
white off the shoulders
til I was bare
til I was raw

Red like strawberries
embroidered on the hem
I tried it softly, offered with prayer
But it doesn't sway, with you I always have to play the game

Deep in green Virginia
I thought about you
I bathed in the river alone

pearls of rain fell on the backs
of crickets as they lay
Dark shadows fell on the hills
they bound me in ribbons black

If I'm afraid it's only because
I long to see and be seen
I have cried in the Bear Lake
and more time alone won't change
the ways I've given up and given in
All I have to time to see

Emerald glow
take me home ...
Joyfully, joyfully

Driving across America
I wouldn't say what I felt at all
things were sweeter then
I can't recognize it now
Joyfully, joyfully ...
