I found my love by the hands-off Tree,

she threw that apple down to me

I was so hungry, what did I know?

The night fell down with a pale full moon,

one boy, one girl, lost it in June

Now every parent prays “just say no”

But we weren't praying down below, below, below

We fell on the mercy going down below

I've read the Bible, I've read the Koran,

Indian fables and all of that Zen

I tried to pull myself up by my own bootstraps

I drowned in the television, I went blind,

the world downtown's just so unkind

And not a soul can say which way you gotta go now

So stay with me below, below, below

Stay for the mercy going down below

Thought I could fight it, but boy I fell,

down the bottom of my wishing well

heard a siren's voice sigh low,

I closed my eyes, I just let go…Streets of gold, rivers of wine, 

I make time with that angel of mine

It's just some crazy dream, but dreams can come true.

When you're dreaming down below, below, below

Hang on that mercy way down below

Got that mercy flowin' down below

Hang on that mercy way down below
