I dream of rain, e lay, e lay.
I dream of gar dens in the des ert sand.
I wake in pain, e lay, e lay.
I dream of love as (G7sus)time runs through my hand.
I dream of fire, e lay, e lay.
These dreams are tied to a horse that will nev er tire.
And in the flames, e lay, e lay.
Her shad ows play in the shape of a man’s de sire.
This des ert rose, e lay, e lay.
Each of her veils, a se cret prom ise.
This des ert flow’r, e lay, e lay.
No sweet per fume ev er tor tured me more than this.
And as she turns, e lay, e lay,
this way she moves in the log ic of all my dreams.
This fire burns, e lay, e lay.
I re a lize that noth ing’s as it seems.
I dream of rain, e lay, e lay.
I dream of gar dens in the des ert sand.
I wake in pain, e lay, e lay.
I dream of love as (G7sus)time runs through my hand.
I dream of rain, e lay, e lay.
I dream of gar dens in the des ert sand.
I wake in pain, e lay, e lay.
I dream of love as (G7sus)time runs through my hand.
Sweet des ert rose, e lay, e lay.
Each of her veils, a se cret prom ise.
This des ert flow’r, e lay, e lay.
No sweet per fume ev er tor tured me more than this.
Sweet des ert rose, e lay, e lay.
This mem o ry of E den haunts us all.
This des ert flower, this rare per fume, is the sweet in tox i ca (G7sus)tion of the fall.
