I know of a garden
in my dreams
Of love and roses
in the sea soaked
Winds of a distant land
Of Grecian vases and
Turkish arches
Where love lingers
in the perfume
Of a maiden's breath
I know of a garden
in my dreams
Where sweet kisses
pervade the mood
And lovers meet
to consummate their
Knowing in needs of love
Such a place of
warm mists of ocean
Breezes in the whisper
Of a lover's wish
I know of a garden
of loving thoughts
Where hand in hand
you can wander
In a dreamy illusion
of fragrant damask
Roses lingering in
the gateways
To a sacred place
of holy water
Where kisses wet
the lips
Of lovers in love
I know of a garden
of joyous solemnity
Where the winds ring
melodies of enchantment
And lovers rest
in calm solitude
Dreaming of being
forever in love
And lingering there
the dream becomes
Reality in a warm ocean
Breeze of caressing endearment
And lovers drink of the waters
