I dream of rain
|
I dream of gardens
|
in the desert sand
|
I wake in pain
|
I dream of love as time
|
runs through my hand
|
I dream of fire
|
Those dreams are tied
|
to a horse that will never tire
|
And in the flames
|
Her shadows play
|
in the shape of a man's desire
|
This desert rose
|
Each of her veils
|
a secret promise
|
This desert flower
|
No sweet perfume ever
|
tortured me more than this
|
And as she turns
|
This way she moves
|
in the logic of all my dreams
|
This fire burns
|
I realise that nothing's
|
as it seems
|
I dream of rain
|
I dream of gardens
|
in the desert sand
|
I wake in pain
|
I dream of love as time
|
runs through my hand
|
I dream of rain
|
I lift my gaze to empty
|
skies above
|
I close my eyes
|
this rare perfume
|
Is the sweet
|
intoxication of her love
|
<Interlude>
|
I dream of rain
|
I dream of gardens
|
in the desert sand
|
I wake in pain
|
I dream of love as time
|
runs through my hand
|
Sweet desert rose
|
Each of her veils
|
a secret promise
|
This desert flower
|
No sweet perfume ever
|
tortured me more than this
|
Sweet desert rose
|
This memory
|
of Eden haunts us all
|
This desert flower
|
this rare perfume
|
Is the sweet
|
intoxication of the fall
|
could
|
never be loved
|
White guts
|
white wall tires
|
floor plush
|
it's so fire
|
brains blowed sittin on dubs
|
come through could
|
never be loved
|
White guts
|
white wall tires
|
floor plush
|
it's so fire
|
brains blowed sittin on dubs
|
come through could
|
never be loved
|
C a d i l l a c you and me
|
will grey so cleanly
|
C a d i l l a c blowing smoke
|
so high and freely
|
C a d i l l a c you and me uh
|
blowing smoke so high and freely
