lyrics

I had this dream about dying, my body couldn’t move suddenly I found
I couldn’t dart across the yard, taking on a million things, readying for friends
The project that I began fell loose from my hand, incomplete to the ground
The song that was playing on the radio, I’d never know exactly how it ends

A thousand moments spent with ease
Our strength fell with the leaves
I never saw us grow that old
But that’s the story you always told

I had a dream
You finally came back here for me
Hang your mourning head
Talking to the dead instead of me

Years that were made of moments of star-crossed love we desperately tried to stop time
Fingers laced in the sand rocks glowing in our hands as the rain found its way down
Anything to capture our new found rapture was never to be mine
Take a photo, write a song, you know it won’t be long ‘fore all of this will be gone

A thousand moments spent with ease
Our strength fell with the leaves
I never saw us grow that old
But that’s the story you always told

I had a dream
You finally came back here for me
Hang your mourning head
Talking to the dead instead of me

I had a dream
You finally came back here for me
Hang your mourning head
Talking to the dead instead of me

Talking to the dead instead of me
