F# B
Last night I had a dream
F# B
The dream I had was true

I fell through the stars

Went walking on the moon

Burned like a thousand candles in her arms
F# B
The skin under my finger tips
F# B
Honeysuckle of her lips
F# B D#m
Sweeter than a man deserves to taste
[Chorus 1]

Mercy, mercy, what else can I say?
F# B F# B F# B
But Amen. Amen Amen

Last night we were born together
F# B
It was like we'd always been
F# B
She'll be with me forever
F# B
If I don't see her again
D#m B C#
We poured the wine until our cup ran over
F# B
Unfolding like the mystery
F# B
Inside of her like poetry

D# thousand horses running through my veins
[Chorus 1]

Mercy, mercy what else can I say
F# B F# B F# B
But Amen. Amen Amen

I laid down in her garden

Naked on her floor

Windows up, the curtains blowing

At the banquet table

I felt her tongue between my lips

We stayed there 'til the candles burned the carpet

Last night I had a dream
F# B
The dream I had was true
