Dory Previn - Atlantis lyrics

I lie in bed Beside him And i know him Outside in I've learned his body's Line and length And memorized his grin I've counted Every crease At the edges Of his eyes I know his soul's Complete circumference I know His lies I know His outer qualities I know His inner doubt As i know the skin Underneath his shirt I know What he's about I lie in bed Beside him And unravel him Like twine I know his depths his drives His drawbacks As he Knows mine I heard they found The lost atlantis Off the spanish coast With a host Of hidden secrets Buried signs and symbols Green and guarded gold And ghosts I listen To his breathing And familiar Tho' he seems His sleeping self Has wandered To the regions of his dreams While Off the coast of spain The moorish moonlight beams And deep In guarded spanish waters The green gold Gleams... I lie in bed beside him And i ask him Will you go? He says i swear I'll never leave you I say I know...
