Idler's Dream

my heart it skips a beat when i behold
the light that's shining through your eyes of gold
from heavenly blood you seem to spring
from heavenly waters you can drink
i'll meet you on a day that never ends
i'll greet you in a way that heaven meant
you lay me down gently on the leaves
you cover me over in my sleep

i never did say that i wish i could
i never could pray cos it's just no good
i hope you don't break my heart of stone
i don't wanna scream out loud
and wake up on my own

and as i close my eyes
and the sky turns red
i realise just what you are
you're an idlers dream
and you're singing shangri la
shangri la
shangri la
shangri la
