Lyrics

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 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 feelins - take 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
You had me worried! so worried - that this would last..
But now I'm learning - learning that this will pass..
