about

This song is the only song on the record with a different time signature. It's in 3's. That means you can waltz to it. Now carry on.

lyrics

I had a dream I went walking around
With all of my friends in a beautiful town
Where everyone loved us
And no body fought
And as I was starting to wake up I thought

I don't want to wake up this time
When all of these visions in sleep seem sublime
I wish I had a nightmare tonight
So when I wake up the world might feel all right

I had a dream that I'd finally made peace
With all the old friends who'd become enemies
And we all forgave all the bad thing's we'd done
We gave up our hate and had nothing but fun

And I got a postcard from heaven, it read in full
Wish you were here, the weather is beautiful
I thought it was nice that her soul had been filed
Where no one was lonely and everyone smiled

I thought this world just doesn't fit me quite right
Hey God, could I try on another for size?
I'm trying hard as I can but it seems
We'll never find anything as fine as our dreams

I don't want to wake up this time
When all of these visions in sleep seem sublime
I wish I had a nightmare tonight
So when I wake up the world might feel all right
