Venice To Mars

I have the dream where here's an island in the stream
And the gondoliers are gliding by like birds
You stir beside me half awake and take my hand
Cause the way we share the dark it needs no words

The rains pursued us when we took that train from Mars
Cause you didn't want to fly the German skies
The streets are waking with the operas and guitars
While the reasons I adore you fill your eyes

Let me tell you my secret
I'm gunna love you
Forever

They bring us breakfast and the birds are on the sill
And you're taking orange juice with you in to shower
We're living life like children rolling down a hill
Where all the weeds have died and now it's all just flowers

When I was twenty and my world was made of glass
And all the stones were thrown against it like a shield
I never dared to wonder why those hungers pass
Could lead me to this time and place where love is steeled

Let me tell you my secret
I'm gunna love you
Forever

We're in the ballroom and the night's a masquerade
And though we're hidden I am dancing in your eyes
Beyond the waltzes come the thousand colonnades
And you can hear a thousand hearts all synchronize

With bodies braced together spinning through the crowd
I am jester I am lover I am bliss
The music ends but you and I compose a cloud
And we dance beyond the trance beyond the kiss

Let me tell you my secret
I'm gunna love you
Forever
