0:20Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths
0:28Enwrought with golden and silver light
0:37The blue and the dim and the dark cloth
0:41Of night and light and the half-light
1:02I would spread the cloth under your feet;
1:18But I being poor have only my dreams;
1:26I have spread my dreams under your feet
1:35Tread softly
1:40Tread softly because you tread on my dreams
2:09But I being poor have only my dreams;
2:17I have spread my dreams under your feet;
2:25Tread softly
2:31Tread softly because you tread on my dreams
Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths Enwrought with golden and silver light The blue and the dim and the dark cloth Of night and light and the half-light I would spread the cloth under your feet; But I being poor have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet Tread softly Tread softly because you tread on my dreams But I being poor have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly Tread softly because you tread on my dreams
