Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 fingertips
The honeysuckle on her lips
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
Mercy, mercy, what else can I say
But amen
Amen
Amen
[Verse 2]
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
[Bridge]
I laid down in her garden
Naked on her floor
Windows up, the curtains blowing
She don't lock the door
[Chorus]
Amen
Amen
[Verse 3]
At the banquet table
A beggar at a feast
I felt her tongue between my lips
And I forgot to breathe
We stayed there till 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
[Chorus]
Amen
Amen
