i dreamed of louisiana
and a night in lafayette
we had breakfast with susanna
we were young and wild and left
[chorus:]
what's different here than in that dream
and in reality
is we weren't afraid to fail in love
and we all believed in the dream
before... before
i dreamed of manhattan
in a time before this war
it was snowing down on bleecker street
it was before you were a star
[chorus]
now everything is twilight
it's a time too dark to see
it's fear of being what we were
and pondering the dream
then i dreamed of texas
and the gulf coast shores
i dreamed of who we used to be
and the hope we had before
[chorus] |
