   eyes.....

Verse 1:
Then she appeared, Apple Venus on a half-open shell,
Then she appeared, the first photograph on Fox Talbot's gel,
I was a... little frightened, flying with my senses heightened
Cherubim cheered... Then she appeared!

Verse 2:
Then she appeared, as the giggling crew of _Mary Celeste_,
Then she appeared, pale Atlantis rising out of the West,
I was a... little dazzled, catherine-wheeled and senses frazzled
All Edward Leared... Then she appeared!

Chorus 1:
And the Sun which formerly shone in the clearest summer sky,
Suddenly just changed address, now shines from her blue eyes...

Verse 3:
Then she appeared, brittle shooting star that fell in my lap,
Then she appeared, dressed in tricolour & Phrygian cap,
I was a... little troubled, hookah with my senses bubbled,
Know it sounds weird, but she appeared!

Chorus 2:
And the Moon which formerly rode on the marbled midnight mile,
Suddenly just packed its bags, now shines from her bright smile...
