  • Amen
    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
