Lyrics
Dream Like You
©1998 Pat Dube. All Rights Reserved.
If I had a dream like you
Would I compromise everything I'd like to do
Just to make you want to screw me
There must be a fine line in between
What you say and what you mean
What you want and what you need
I remember well, lying in the sun
You were friendly then, didn't hate anyone
What's made you grow so cold
Have you given up on all the good that you've been told
Kiss those times good bye, ain't no use in crying
We'll lose those memories with age eventually
Everything will fade, all the images will go away
You were so good
You were so quick
You were so great
...at telling me what I wanted to hear
I don't want to complicate things
I surely don't want to dwell
We never had it set in stone
Or written with are blood
Kiss those times good bye, ain't no use in crying
We'll lose those memories with age eventually
Everything will fade, all the images will go away
You were so good
You were so quick
You were so great
...at telling me what I wanted to hear
