Amoreena Music by Elton John Lyrics by Bernie Taupin Available on the Album Tumbleweed Connection - - - - - - - - - - - - Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady / Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours / Rolling through the hay like a puppy child And when it rains the rain falls down Washing out the cattle town And she's far away somewhere in her eiderdown ° And she dreams of crystal streams / Of days gone by when we would lean / Laughing fit to burst upon each other I can see you sitting eating apples in the evening The fruit juice flowing slowly, slowly, slowly Down the bronze of your body Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours Rolling through the hay like a puppy child And when it rains the rain falls down... Oh if only I could nestle in the cradle of your cabin My arms around your shoulders the windows wide and open While the swallow and the sycamore are playing in the valley Oh I miss you Amoreena like a king bee misses honey And when it rains the rain falls down... And when it rains the rain falls down... - - - - - - Lately I've been thinking how much I miss my lady Amoreena's in the cornfield brightening the daybreak Living like a lusty flower, running through the grass for hours Rolling through the hay like a puppy child Copyright (c) Mark van Gerven Netherlands
