I had the strangest dream I ever had As I lay asleep once in my bed I was in a garden by the fountain Where tears would make love grow You kissed me there and my life did start It was sealed with gold in March Now summers old, winters cold And tears do make love grow So please come to me To the garden and to the river and the valley by the sea Show me all the stars that shone And tears will make love grow Sing this ballad, the last I began of songs That's for all of the Angels in the heaven they've flown And there will be an oasis for our god -rotten faces And tears do make love grow And angels lie between your marble thighs And spiders explode in your kaleidoscopic eyes The rain will fall, the wind will roll And tears will make love grow So sleep softly, dream of me Wherever you go Oh, I'm not dead or buried yet Tell me so I know It was the weirdest dream I ever had And if I dreamed then I'd dream Then I'd dream you right back Of there in the garden, down by that fountain where Tears would make love grow And tears would make love glow And tears would make love glow
