Flower of the Mountain

Yes, first I gave him the bit of seed cake out of my mouth
And it was leap year like now, yes
Sixteen years ago my God, after that long kiss
I nearly lost my breath, yes

He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes
So we are flowers on a woman's body, yes

Stepping out
Of the page
Into the sensual world
Stepping out
And Gibraltar as a girl where I was a flower of the mountain, yes
When I put the rose in my hair like the Andalusian girls used
Or shall I wear a red, yes

And how he kissed me under the Moorish wall
And I thought well, as well him as another
Stepping out
Of the page
Into the sensual world
And then I asked him with my eyes to ask again, yes

And then he asked me would I, yes, to say yes, my mountain flower
And first I put my arms around him, yes and drew him down to me
So he could feel my breasts or perfume, yes
And his heart was going like mad and yes
I said yes, I will, yes
