[Intro]
(hA)
[Chorus 1]
The aphid sleeps
The aphid sleeps
Behind the leaf
The ant observes
The ant observes
And milks her hair (La-la, la-la, la)
[Post-Chorus 1]
Rest your head upon the grass
Let all the creatures gaze
In the garden on your lovely sleep (La, la)
[Verse 1]
I go back again the next day
Each blade is green as each blade
I see him on the dreaming moon
The deep, the green, the deep green moon
[Chorus 2]
The dog has fun
The dog has fun
He likes to run
He wags his tail
He wags his tail
Against the pail
[Post-Chorus 2]
You wake up on the dreaming moon
In the soil, a worm is turning
Every day I'm dreaming more
In my heart, the sun is burning
[Verse 2]
I go back again the next day
He lies again on a bed of green blades
I see him on the deep green moon
Fawning on the dreaming moon
His violet skin against the wood
Dreaming of the dreaming of
[Bridge]
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, oh
Ah, ah
[Outro]
Every day I'm dreaming more
In my violet girl is turning
Every day I'm weaning more
Every day I'm burning more
