From the recording Infinity
Lyrics
(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)
(Listen beloved I dreamed)
