LAST NIGHT?S BAD DREAMS

Last night?s bad dreams
Makes memories of pain
There?s always tomorrow
But peace never came
Last night?s bad dreams
It always seems - is one night away
We had to move grandpa, my heart broke
Memories came to me, some new - some old
He?ll get good care, there?s nothing to fear
Like last night?s bad dreams.
But when I look back, its always the same
Same old, old man, he?s just in the way.
He pleads to stay, we lock him away.
Like last night?s bad dreams.
Last night?s bad dreams, have changed with time.
The old man?s face is now mine.
And now it seems they can?t hear the screams
Like last night?s bad dreams.
