Southern Beauty

[Intro] [Soft warm guitar] [Verse 1] A voice like the murmur of doves. Soft lightning from eyes of blue; On her cheek a flush like love’s First delicate, rosebud hue; [Verse 2] Bright torrents of hazel hair. Which, glittering, flow and float O’er the swell of her bosom fair. And the snows of her matchless throat; [Chorus] O creature of light and air! O fairy sylph o' th’ sun! Hearts whelmed in the tidal gold of her hair Rejoice to be so undone! [Bridge] Lithe limbs of a life so fine, That their rhythmical motion seems But a part of the grace divine Of the music of haunted dreams; [Interlude] [Chorus] O creature of light and air! O fairy sylph o' th’ sun! Hearts whelmed in the tidal gold of her hair Rejoice to be so undone! [Verse 3] Low gurgling laughter, as sweet As the swallow’s song i’ the South. And a ripple of dimples that, dancing, meet By the curves of a perfect mouth; [Outro] O creature of light and air! O fairy sylph o' th’ sun! Hearts whelmed in the tidal gold of her hair Rejoice to be so undone!
