Amen Lyrics

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
Her skin under my finger tips
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'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 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
