PHIL OCHS
"Your Eyes Will Taste Of The Flowers"

I'm a leavin' on the morning railroad
In the drizzlin' darkness of the rain
And I hear with every wheel a turning
Secrets sounding of your name.

[Chorus:]
And your eyes will taste of the flowers
Your lips of the morning dew
And your hair will taste of the meadow
And all the world will taste of you.

I can't tell the reason why I'm leaving
I don't know just what I'm heading for
I just know with every mile I wander
I'm needing you another mile more.

[Chorus]

Oh if you never get my letter
You know your memory will stay
With every song that I am singing
With every word that I say.

[Chorus]

I'll carry your picture in my pocket
When times are good or times are bad
And if I chance to meet another
It won't take away the good times that
Singin' all the world will taste of you.
