Last night I had a dream The dream I had was true I fell through the stars Went walkin on the Moon Burned like a thousand candles in her arms Her skin under my finger tips The honey suckle 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 a 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 my lips And I forgot to breathe 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'll kneel down and pray Amen Amen Amen
