Dot Allison and Homay Schmitz - Ghost Orchid

Sail to me, so gently
Ink your words all over me
I'm evergreen like the pine

God knows I adored you
God knows I adored you

You're my church of snow
And everywhere was nowhere
Wherever we would go
I kneel down at my church of snow
I pray, I pray

Orchid ghost, all yours to spoil
My heaven-reaching petals born for your soil
Evergreen as I pined...
For one drop of your sweet nectar
To deepen the flower
Your love the lectern, where I could have learnt

God knows I adored you
God knows I adored you

You're my church of snow
And I'll be your disciple until we're old
Kneel down at my church of snow
You're everywhere yet nowhere wherever I go...
I kneel down at my church of snow
Melt into the sun
Kneel down with me, I'll be your church of snow
Kneel down beside me and...
Melt into the sun
Melt into the sun
