Afternoon (Album) Lyrics

[00:00.650]	When I am old, and comforted,
[00:02.320]	And done with this desire,
[00:04.620]	With memory to share my bed
[00:08.650]	When I am old, and comforted,
[00:10.270]	And done with this desire,
[00:12.540]	And peace to share my fire,I’ll comb my hair in scalloped bands
[00:16.770]	And peace to share my fire,I’ll comb my hair in scalloped bands
[00:20.590]	Beneath my laundered cap,
[00:24.360]	And watch my cool and fragile hands
[00:28.600]	Lie light upon my lap.
[00:32.770]	And I will have a sprigged gown
[00:36.650]	With lace to kiss my throat;
[00:40.330]	I’ll draw my curtain to the town,
[00:44.740]	And hum a purring note.
[00:48.840]	And I’ll forget the way of tears,
[00:52.770]	And rock, and stir my tea.
[00:56.650]	But oh, I wish those blessed years
[01:00.850]	Were further than they be!
[01:05.100]	And I will have a sprigged gown
[01:09.300]	With lace to kiss my throat;
[01:13.240]	I’ll draw my curtain to the town,
[01:16.940]	And hum a purring note.
[01:21.620]	When I am old, and comforted,
[01:22.800]	And done with this desire,
[01:25.170]	With memory to share my bed
[01:29.180]	When I am old, and comforted,
[01:31.270]	And done with this desire,
[01:33.210]	And peace to share my fire,I’ll comb my hair in scalloped bands
[01:37.290]	And peace to share my fire,I’ll comb my hair in scalloped bands

[00:00.650]	When I am old, and comforted,
[00:02.320]	And done with this desire,
[00:04.620]	With memory to share my bed
[00:08.650]	When I am old, and comforted,
[00:10.270]	And done with this desire,
[00:12.540]	And peace to share my fire, I' ll comb my hair in scalloped bands
[00:16.770]	And peace to share my fire, I' ll comb my hair in scalloped bands
[00:20.590]	Beneath my laundered cap,
[00:24.360]	And watch my cool and fragile hands
[00:28.600]	Lie light upon my lap.
[00:32.770]	And I will have a sprigged gown
[00:36.650]	With lace to kiss my throat
[00:40.330]	I' ll draw my curtain to the town,
