Amen

Lyrics

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  
Amen, amen
