Lyrics

While you were still sleeping
I dreamed a wondrous dream
I walked across a meadow
With Anne of Nazarene
And the wounds of desire
That I thought had long been healed
Were blooming deep inside me
Like the flowers of that field
And she showed me golden apples
Hanging heavy from the trees
On boughs bent and broken
With the weight of memories
But I felt like a beggar
To be standing in front of these
Treasures I could not carry home
Well I reached for her body
But she turned away in shame
She said I am not here
I am nothing but your pain
And the wounds of desire
That you want so much to feel
They're all that stand between you
And a love that's really real
And she showed me golden apples
Hanging heavy from the trees
On boughs bent and broken
With the weight of memories
But I felt like a beggar
To be reaching out for these
Treasures I could not carry home
When you're gonna quit your dreaming
When you're gonna let your mind be clear
When the morning sun comes screaming
We'll say
When you're gonna turn
When you're gonna turn
When you're gonna turn
Turn to what is here
Well I fought so hard for love
But I think I see at last
That what I thought was love
Was just a war waged on the past
So if I wake up crying
Honey hold me in your peace
Cut me from my garden
Help me find release
Yeah I know the golden apples
Are still hanging from the trees
On boughs bent and broken
With the weight of memories
And I know I'm still a beggar
But I will not stoop for these
Treasures I cannot carry home
Treasures I cannot carry home to you
Treasures I cannot carry home to you
