He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven lyrics

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,

Inwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue, and the dim, and the dark cloths

Of night, and the light, and the half-light.

I would spread the cloths 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.
