|
In a dream I saw you walkin' |
|
Like a kid alive and talking |
|
That was you |
|
In the classroom you were teachin' |
|
On the streets you were policing |
|
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 feelings |
|
Takes four legs to make a ceilin' like a thing |
|
In a dream I saw you walkin' |
|
With your friends alive and talking |
|
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 |
