Lyrics
In the hour before sunrise When the shadows hustle home And the owls dream of daybreak And the redwoods softly moan I have often begged for magic To bring my true love home But the sunrise only shows How well my garden grows In the heat of a single blood-red rose These eyes, no good for darkness Rely upon the tenderness Of shadows for their pa**ion And the branches slowly twist Tangled promise with a kiss Only lovers can imagine I have often begged for morning Confessing all she knows But the sunrise shows How well my garden grows In the heat of a blood-red rose In the hours of my morning In the vision of the light Lay the afternoon and evening And a promise of the night I have often begged for darkness To still these trembling hands But the sunrise shows How well my garden grows In the heat of the blood-red sand
