Lyrics

Last night I dreamed about you
 I dreamed that you were older
 You were looking like Picasso
 With a scar across your shoulder
 You were kneeling by the river
 You were digging up the bodies buried long ago
 Michelangelo
 Last night I dreamed about you
 I dreamed you were a pilgrim
 On a highway out alone
 To find the mother of your children
 Who were still unborn and waiting
 In the wings of some desire, abandoned long ago
 Michelangelo
 Were you there at Armageddon
 Was Paris really burning?
 Could I have been the one to pull you
 From the point of no returning?
 And did I hear you calling out my name
 Or was it forgotten long ago?
 Michelangelo
 ♪
 Last night I dreamed about you
 I dreamed that you were riding
 On a blood red painted pony
 Up where the heavens were dividing
 And the angels turned to ashes
 You came tumbling with them to earth, so far below
 Michelangelo
 Last night I dreamed about you
 I dreamed that you were dying
 In a field of thorn and roses
 With a hawk about you crying
 For the warrior slain in battle
 From an arrow driven deep inside you long ago
 Michelangelo
 Did you suffer at the end
 Would there be no one to remember?
 Did you banish all the old ghosts
 With the terms of your surrender?
 And could you hear me calling out your name?
 Well, I guess that I will never know
 Michelangelo
 Last night I dreamed about you
 I dreamed that you were weeping
 And your tears poured down like diamonds
 For a love beyond all keeping
 And you caught them one by one
 In a million silk bandanas that I gave you long ago
 Michelangelo
