Last night I had a dream The dream I had was true
I fell through the stars Went walking on the moon
Burned like a thousand candles in her arms
The skin under my finger tips Honeysuckle on her lips
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?
But Amen Amen Amen
Last night we were born together It was like we'd always been
She'll be with me forever If I don't see her again
We poured the wine until our cup ran over
Unfolding like the mystery Inside of her like poetry
A thousand horses running through my veins
Mercy, mercy what else can I say
Amen, Amen Amen
I laid down in her garden Naked on her floor
Windows up, the curtains blowing She don't lock the door
Amen~ , Amen~
At the banquet table A beggar at a feast
I felt her tongue between her lips And I forgot to breath
We stayed there 'til the candles burned the carpet
Last night I had a dream The dream I had was true
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
Mercy, mercy, I laid down and prayed
Amen Amen~ , Amen~
