(Listen beloved I dreamed)

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

It appeared that you thought to escape me

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

And become a great lily atilt on insolent waters

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

But I was aware of fragrance and I came riding upon a horse

(Of porphyry)

Into the water I rode down the red horse shrieking from the splintering foam caught you clutched you in my mouth

In my dream you had a desire to thwart me

(Listen beloved I dreamed, listen beloved I dreamed)

Became a little bird and hid in a tree of tall marble

(Listen beloved I dreamed, listen beloved I dreamed)

From a great way I distinguished singing I came riding upon a scarlet

(A scarlet sunset)

Trampling the night easily from the shocked impossible tower I caught you strained you broke you on my blood, blood, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

I thought you had deceived me come a star in kingdom heaven

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

Through day and space I saw you close your eyes and I came riding

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

Upon a thousand crimson years arched with agony I reined them in

(Ah, I reined them in)

Tottering before the throne and as they shied at the automaton moon from the transplendent hand of sombre God, I picked you

As an apple is picked by the little peasants for their girls

(Listen beloved I dreamed)

(Listen beloved I dreamed)
