Envelopes Of Glassine

Envelopes of glassine
Spoiled the surprise
Took that tender moment
I see what's inside
I was Vegas, you were Rome
Close your eyes and think of me

I held nine pictures
Lined left to right
Where edge met edge
I see what's inside
What faith would not carry
Impatience denied
I was Vegas, you were Rome
Wasn't built in a day

This gambol cannot last
This courtship will slide
Envelopes of glassine
Spoiled the surprise
I'll walk from Vegas, you sail from Rome
Let us have met
