Lyrics and Structure
Had a dream last night of you
Wandering down an empty street from down a lane
So I ran up to you
alt Em
C alt Em
Tripping over cobble stones when I awoke
Alone and in vain

I felt empty and confused
I sat there with your clothes near me
I reached up and grabbed a lamplight
Which fell and broke
Well the what a day (???)
I stared through empty eyes
Of lavender moon and I
Far beyond your tears now
Still outside in the mist, drenched to the bone
alt Em
And you sang
Everythings all right
Lick
Wed walked through summer fields
C alt Em Chorus 1
Live the life of sin (???), cry on hard walls together, we did everything
Well at night we talked and talked
Questioned what the future embraced
Hugging perfect shapes all day
Wed lie and sleep in
Lick
But now youve left and gone
And all I have are memories of you
They return to me when Im asleep
When dreams
alt Em
What I want to say was true (???)
