Received: .}
Yeah, now I've met me another spinner of strange and gauzy threads
With a long and slender body and a bump upon the head.
(Chorus)
With a long and slender body and the sweetest, softest hands,
And we'll blow away forever soon and go on to different lands.
And please do not ever look for me, but with me you will stay.
And you will hear yourself in song, blowing by one day.
(Chorus)

Timing and Melody Notes:
1. There are some slight variations in melody for each verse, not
shown above because I don't have them transcribed. You'll have to hear the
recording or put changes in as you see fit. The melody only spans a small
range, which suits Suzanne Vega's voice nicely, but it can sound a bit mono-
tonic to my ear when I sing it, unless I spice it up a bit. It doesn't
damage the song; quite the contrary.
2. Sing each "Oh." as one continuous word, i.e., all notes are
slurred. Note that there are two "Oh."s in the ending, separated by a
quarter-note rest.
