The Felice Brothers - The Mating of the Doves lyrics

From the Gulf of Aden, to the marble coast To the rolling hills of Oregon And the Tigris River and the wind that blows In the hanging bowers of Babylon I'm a fool for giving all that I gave to you pitiful people when the world was made And if I come back down from the stars above It's just to watch the mating of the doves I was there in Egypt when your king was slain And it made me cry a million tears And it formed a river in a western state And it carved a canyon through the years And I'm a fool for giving all that I gave To you pitiful people when the world was made And if I come back down from the stars above It's just to watch the mating of the doves So you can preach of Heaven and you can warn of Hell And you can murder millions in my name But I gave you Heaven and the only Hell Is the one you made from fear and hate You're all fools for thinking that I'm coming back For some fiery judgement and turn the world to black And if I come back down it's not to judge but love And to be among the mating of the doves
