Story Behind The Song
Drawn from a combination of personal experiences and fictitious pondering. Wanted the music to have a drifting, spacey, melancholy, longing quality.
Song Description
Tells a brief story of the loss of a love and the experience feeling like a bad dream. Asking "why did you let her go?". Not a "happy ending" song in that it stays true to the drifting quality and subject throughout.

Lyrics
YOU.....MEANT SO MUCH TO ME
AND I LET YOU GO, I LET YOU JUST WALK AWAY
I..........WAS TOO BLIND TO SEE
STILL, THIS ALL SEEMS TO BE...A BAD DREAM..TO ME
YOU...REALLY SHOULD KNOW WHY
BUT, IT HURTS ME SO, I CAN'T FIND THE WORDS TO SAY
I......KNOW I'VE GOTTA TRY
STILL, THIS ALL SEEMS TO BE...A BAD DREAM...TO ME
WHY DID YOU LET HER GO?, WHY DID YOU LET HER GO?
WHY, WHY, WHY?
WHY DID YOU LET HER GO?, WHY DID YOU LET HER GO?
WHY, WHY, WHY?
WHY?, I REALLY DON'T KNOW....
IT'S ALL A BAD DREAM,
IT'S ALL A BAD DREAM... TO ME.....
