Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I went to heaven
'Twas a small town
Lit with Ruby
Lathed them with down
[Verse 2]
Stiller than the fields
At the full dew
Beautiful as pictures
No man drew, no man drew
[Verse 3]
People like the moth
Of Mel Chin frames
Duties of Gossamer
And eider names
[Verse 4]
Almost continent
How I could be
'Mongst such a unique
Society, society?
[Verse 5]
Mmm, mmm
'Twas a small town
Mmm, mmm
Lathen with down
Written by: Carla Bruni, Emily Dickinson
