lyrics
Twelve dancing princesses couldn't take you away from me now,
And you can keep your rings and pretty things
as prizes to give children.
When I want to be bound with you,
I will do it my own way -
With a hoop of wild cherry wood,
And two threads of hair tied in a knot -
And a long slow kiss so sweet, you will forget me not.
Sweet lover, sleeping in the clover,
You are quite safe here with me.
The quarrels of wild youth are all gone away.
We might embrace a thousand years
And our passions never fade.
The things that worry your head
Are like birds in a tree.
Let them whistle their tune and be rooted in me.
Carve your plans in the rock;
Drown your fears in the sea;
Cast off what you cannot keep,
and be wedded with me.
It is a small thing to give for a great joy
Or else you will ever be lost,
On stormy seas ever be tossed,
Or else you will never be free.
Come bind your love with me,
Come bind your joy with me,
Come bind your life with me.
Be rooted far and deep.

Stunning! There’s something so timeless and sublime about your music…so glad I discovered your sounds, your music is frequently the soundtrack to my day/eve and brings so much inspiration. Thank you! :) kathey
I'm so glad these people exist to continue the tradition of psychedelic music without ruining everything with reverb vocals as most neopsychedelia musicians do. dereidechs
Post-Worthless, Annique Monet makes solo LP of magical, psychedelic pop songs that drift in and out of consciousness. Bandcamp New & Notable May 22, 2015
With their blend of playfulness and graduate-level instrumentation, Dorcha deftly prove that improvisational zeal and conservatory-level precision aren't mutually exclusive. Bandcamp Album of the Day Nov 16, 2020
Strangely familiar, like a dream or distorted memory where all the streets are in the wrong place. It is a surprising musical landscape full of twists, like a funhouse maze. Melodic and experimental. Sinister Pete
