Mr. Scruff Lyrics
'Open your eyes'
Said the man in my dreams
'Open your heart,' said the woman
'Unpick the seeds'
Take a boat across the river of your mind
Take a chance, get your wish and you will
Find a place where you can be free
Where the dew tastes of honey
And the trees bear the fruits
Of love
As a small child, I dreamed of trees
Of the open fields and autumn leaves
Strawberry sunsets, the blue of the sea
There was a whole world inside
Waiting for me
Take a boat across the river of your mind
Take a chance, get your wish and you will
Find a place where you can be free
Where the dew tastes of honey
And the trees bear the fruits
Of love
As a woman now I dream of peace
Of adding most sense naivety
Still in my dreams my world is at ease
All the colours of life reflected in me
Take a boat across the river of your mind
Take a chance, get your wish and you will
Find a place where you can be free
Where the dew tastes of honey
And the trees bear the fruits
Of love
Love Love Love Love
I feel love
