Hem of His Garment

Maxi jazz in background：...wish he was a man

Pauline：

Oh i wish i could be touched by the hem of his garment

Maxi jazz in background: ...in a dream...

Pauline:

To be proud has never been so mean, so hard, so strange, so cruel

Oh i wish i could be touched by the hem of his garment

Mmmmm, i've come a long way (5x)

Touch the hem of his garment

Dagger should be the tool of a clump.

I'm a fool, you see

Maxi jazz in background: it's not...

Pauline:

Why should such violence, such pain hang between you and me

When love should be a queen on her throne looking after her own

I wish i could be touched by the hem of his garment

Two chairs, this table, one leg, in this house

Seriously, i think we could be,

Feel we could be, touched by the hem of his garment

Pauline / chorus:

Mmmmm, i've come a long way (5x)

Touch the hem of his garment
