Dream of Life - Louise Burns

I had the dream of life last night

Watch the fires burning like a funeral pyre

Took a minute till the embers lost the light

Then it was over

I had a dream of life last night

Visions of a forest fire burning bright

Diamonds in the crossfire of meteorite

Then it was over

So I tell you, I tell you of invisible dreams

It won’t take a minute to see what I seen

I tell you, I tell you it’s not what it seems

Living in the shadow of a terrible thing

I tell you, I tell you, I tell you why

«Was it only a dream, or wishful thinking?»

I had a dream of dark delights

Tied you up and burned you with the candle light

Took a minute to fill up my appetite

Then it was over

You didn’t even blink an eye

Told you it was something to be sacrificed

Bottled up inside you just like dynamite

Ready for breakdown

So I tell you, I tell you of invisible dreams

It won’t take a minute to see what I seen

I tell you, I tell you it’s not what it seems

Living in the shadow of a terrible thing

I tell you, I tell you, I tell you why

«Was it only a dream, or wishful thinking?»

I had the dream of life last night

Watched those fires burning like a burial site

Took a minute till the embers lost the light

Then it was over

So I tell you, I tell you of invisible dreams

It won’t take a minute to see what I seen

I tell you, I tell you it’s not what it seems

Living in the shadow of a terrible thing

I tell you, I tell you, I tell you why
