Christina’s Farm – Antony And The Johnsons

I got kissed by a turtle dove
Upon a cold Paris manger
I was waking up to my love
First moment dawning danger

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed

I awoke to find a whiteness inside
Everything did shine, slyly, from each body
Halos from within, diamonds the air in
As we crossed to where the Virgin Mary
Moves over the fields
Here and there, she kneels
Sighing sweet relief upon the prairie

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed

As the rich winds blow, kiss each flamingo
Tussle reckless trains of the wild white horses
And at night the owl streaks the field and howls
She sees there’s a kitten, stops wind aghast to hear them shudder

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed

Everything was new
Every sock and shoe
My face and your face
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
Tenderly renewed
