Amen
Last  night  I  had  a  dream
The  dream  I  had  was  true
I  fell  through  the  stars
When  walking  on  the  moon
Like  a  thousand  candles  in  her  arms
Her  skin  under  my  fingertips
The  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 ’d  be  with  me  forever,if  I  don ’t  see  her  again
We  poured  the  wine  until  our  cup  ran  over
Unfolding  like  a  mystery
Each  sight  of  her  like  poetry
A  thousand  horses  running  through  my  veins
Mercy  Mercy,what  else  can  I  say?
Amen
Amen
Amen
I  lay  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  my  lips
And  I  forgot  to  breathe
We  stayed  there  until  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 ’ll  kneel  down  and  pray
Amen
Amen
Amen
