BRANDY OF LAVENDER HUE
tune: A Taste of Honey

I met the man in a spaceport bar,
A brief respite on a distant star.
His drink was brandy,
Brandy of lavender hue.

We laughed and talked as young dreamers do,
Of space and time and of causes true.
Our drink was brandy,
Brandy of lavender hue.

He left to join in a rebels' fight.
I stayed behind in the lonely night.
And wished for brandy,
Brandy of lavender hue.

Oh, I have dreamed.
Oh yes, I have dreamed.
I have dreamed that there could have been more.

I hope that he will remember me.
In my heart he will always be.
Our drink was brandy,
Brandy of lavender hue.
