Just Like A Dream…

I'll let you decide what this one's about. Inmy mind I hear this sung to the tune of "Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own" by U2. If you've got an Irish accent, then so much the better.


Try to sing those songs
Try to hear those words
You'll never find that spark again

Try to know the tune
Try to play those notes
You'll never feel that way again

And it's hard to see you screaming
But it's not wrong to walk away
I can't take your pain no more

You should've been a friend
You should've waited for me
But you stopped loving me
And you forgot me like a dream

Try to recall our laughter
Try to remember those times
You'll never see them again

Try to feel those times
Try to hold them tight
You'll never touch them again

And it's hard to see you bleeding
But it's time to walk away
I can't take your rage no more

You should've been a friend
You should've waited for me
But you stopped hearing me
And you left me like a dream

You don't know what friendship is
You never really did
I've been thrown
I've beenburned
An' I have learned
An' I've known

So don't try anymore
No don't raise a hand
You left me when I couldn't walk
You left me without goodbye
Now you gotta face your work
And pray it don't kill you inside
Like it killed me

Now it's hard to see you dying
Butit'sright to walk away
I can't take your hurt no more

You should've been a friend
You should've waited for me
But you stopped livin' in me
And you lost me like a dream

Just like some bad dream…
