for SATB unaccompanied
Settings words from part of a letter by Edna St Vincent Millay to her lover Arthur Davison Ficke, this is a gentle, charming piece that celebrates our freedom to love. Dacey's rich harmonies and quirky melodies are presented in a rocking 5/8 time signature, and conclude softly with the central message as the phrase 'you and me' fragments and fades into the distance. Also published in Breath of Song.
