Dreams...

lyrics

We stood there so silently
Couldn’t muster a single word
I watched him get into his limousine
And that was the last that I ever heard

He was a comfort and an inspiration to me
With the way he managed his words
The bastard took my memory
But I’ll always have his records
(Thanks Warren)

(Chorus #1)
And a lot of good it did me
All these things that I hold dear
A lot of good it did me
Though I know it’s so sincere

(Now) Two girls were followin’ me
By now you’d think I’d have learned
That how much you bet on your privacy
That don’t change the whacked people in this world

It was a comfort and a relief to me
When I reached the penthouse floor
But yes, those two had found me
So I ran for the trap door
(Thanks for nothing)

(Chorus #2)
And a lot of good it did me
All these things that I fear
A lot of good it did me
Though I know it’s not sincere

Then I stepped inside
And there stood an old friend
I asked if she knew of a place to hide
And would you stick with me ‘till the end?

She took me by the hand and she led me away
And we ran in the crowded elevator
And the door closed only halfway
And what happened next is a blur
(Thanks Christine)

(Chorus #3)
And a lot of good it did me
All these things that I hold near
A lot of good it did me
Though I know it’s so sincere
