(Words and Music by Joan Baez)       How long since I've spent a whole night in a twin bed with a stranger    His warm arms all around me?    How long since I've gazed into dark eyes that melted my soul down    To a place where it longs to be?    All of your history has little to do with your face    You're mainly a mystery with violins filling in space       You stood in the nude by the mirror and picked out a rose    From the bouquet in our hotel    And lay down beside me again and I watched the rose    On the pillow where it fell    I sank and I slept in a twilight with only one care    To know that when day broke and I woke that you'd still be there       The hours for once they passed slowly, unendingly by    Like a sweet breeze on a field    Your gentleness came down upon me and I guess I thanked you    When you caused me to yield    We spoke not a sentence and took not a footstep beyond    Our two days together which seemingly soon would be gone       Don't tell me of love everlasting and other sad dreams    I don't want to hear    Just tell me of passionate strangers who rescue each other    From a lifetime of cares    Because if love means forever, expecting nothing returned    Then I hope I'll be given another whole lifetime to learn       Because you gave to me oh so many things it makes me wonder    How they could belong to me    And I gave you only my dark eyes that melted your soul down    To a place where it longs to be       © 1972 Chandos Music (ASCAP)
