Patti Smith - Mosaic Lyrics
Last night in Konya a voice carried me
To the pulpit of the arrow - did you hear it too?
The oracle was written on a silver leaf
Last night I read the words - did you read them too?
Precious heart, precious seed, precious life conceived
In the ring of fire, in the sleep of peace
Nothing stops desire for the human beat
Last night was a rapture in the mosaic sky
Dropping shards of love, dropping shards of love
Aah...
Precious heart, precious seed, precious life conceived
In the ring of fire, in the sleep of peace
I hunger for the cooling flame, I hunger for the infinite game
Last night in Konya a voice carried me
To the pulpit of the arrow - did you hear it too?
The oracle was written on a silver leaf
Last night I read the words - did you read them too?
Devour me, yeah devour me
Oh Precious heart, oh precious seed, oh precious life conceived
In a ring of fire, in a sleep of peace
Nothing stops desire for the human beat - the human beat
