Last night I had a dream
God came down to talk with me
Asked me the desires of my heart
Separated my mind and heart apart

My mind it wished for solid gold
A mansion built high upon a mountain
The wishes were increasingly bold
Like a pool with a fountain

The Lord, He did not listen
To that greedy part of mind
He turned His focus silently
To the quiet heart of mine
“What would you take, if granted?”
My heart he took a breath
And in a rush and cry for solace
This is what he said

Give me a believing woman, with an equal heart of gold
Give her gentle arms to hold me, as I slowly grow old

Give her wisdom to see inside me, in every hidden room
Give her love of which to bind me, and help me grow and bloom

Give her passion with which to tease me, and keep my smiling face
Give her a spirit of forgiveness, to demonstrate your grace

Give her a mind with which to intrigue me, to keep me slightly out of mine
Give her long life to stand beside me, and to her our gift of time

Lastly give her patience, for I will stumble and I will fall
Lord I beg, bring her to me, I’m too exhausted to crawl
