Dondante

In a dream I saw you walkin'
Like a kid alive and talkin'
That was you

In the classroom you were teachin'
On the streets you were policin'
That was you

To the one I now know most
I will tell them of your ghost like a thing
That never, ever was

And all that ever mattered
Will some day turn back to batter
Like a joke

Behind thin walls you hid your feelins'
Takes four legs to make a ceilin'
Like a thing

In a dream I saw you walkin'
With your friends alive and talkin'
That was you

Well I saw it in your movement
And even though you never knew it
Well, I knew

Just how sweet it could be
If you'd never left these streets

You had me worried, so worried
That this would last
You had me worried, so worried
That this would last

But now I'm learning
Learning that this will pass
But now I'm learning
Learning that this will pass
