I was sleeping in the garden

When I saw you first

He'd put me deep,

Deep under so that he could work
And like the dawn

You broke the dark and my whole earth shook

I was sleeping in the garden

When I saw you

At last, at last

Bones of my bones and flesh of my flesh, at last

You were the brightest shade

Of sun I had ever seen

Your skin was gilded with

The gold of the richest kings
And like the dawn

You woke the world inside of me

You were the brightest shade

Of sun when I saw you

And you will surely be the death of me

But how could I have known?
